Nóvember WI 4

Leiðir

Area: Mýrar west of Höfn in southeast Iceland

Location: This route is in the first obvious frozen line that you see in the mountain you look at when you drive west across Hornafjarðarfljót bridge (hossubrúin). The best way to get to the route is to turn off the main road at the west end of the bridge, and drive few hundred meters on the road that goes to Svínafell in Nes. There are several unclimbed routes on the right side of this route.

Description: We climbed the route in 3 short picthes. Stöllótt leið. The ice was beautiful but not much of it. Probably this route will be 3rd grade when there is plenty of ice.

Grjótagilsgóssið WI 4

Mynd óskast

Area: Mýrar west of Höfn in southeast Iceland

Location: This route is in the gorge you look into straight ahead when you drive west across Hornafjarðarfljót bridge (hossubrúin). There is a short gravel road on the west side of the small stream that comes from the gorge. There are couple of unclimbed route variations possible on the left of this route, after you have climbed the first pitch. We walked down the scree slope few hundred meters northeast from the finish of the route.

Description: We climbed the route in 4 about 25-35 meter picthes. The ice was cold but plenty of it. The first pitch was the highest, and was vertical for a while. The second pitch was lower and possible to choose steep or not steep versions. The third pitch would almost have possible to solo past on the left, but we choose to climb the steep version of it on the right. The top pitch was vertical again for few meters.
