Too cold for me Al, I don’t understand you polar nutters! Looking to head South Pacific way…fingers crossed.
Nick – Iceland will be sunny in mid-summer! Not exactly tropical, but it will be awesome…
Oh man is this tempting. I love Iceland.
I’d love to but no experience what so ever! Unless you think climbing Kilimanjaro n living in alps for a few years counts!
I can use a camera take quite good shots but don’t own one you’d take there!
Willing to take on a novice?
Hi alastair I am up for the adventure! Sounds fantastic. I am going to be free in june and july and feel I could bring a good dynamic and support u well in the adventure. Please contact me on 07980802188 to discuss this opportunity. Kind regards, Tom Blakeman
Al, This trip looks amazing! Can you give me more info on these pack rafts, where you get them, how big/heavy they are, etc?
curious, was actually just looking at a map of iceland earlier today, how heavy to reckon the packs would be and when is the deadline to apply for this funfest
Tom, If you are interested then please email an appropriate biography and some examples of your expedition, photography and/or videography experience.
Are we taking about 30-35 kg a backpack. I wrote a short mail to u yesterday… Interested and been walking alot. Last year i walked 2200 km in 96 days through sweden. Worked as a white water guide summer 2004. Have some photos on facebook from an Iceland biketrip.
Hey Al
I’m like Melissa – would love to but don’t have the experience you need.
I’m sure there must be a few of us that are in the same boat. If you know of more, maybe you could help us get together to organise a ‘novice’ trip?
im totally up for a novice trip

Al – I cycled around Iceland in 2007, amazing place. Would love to join you but I am swimming down the river severn.

I love this idea of a novice trip across Iceland! I too would be greatly interested in such an adventure. What more is there to life than a willingness to succeed?
