The Stump And The Hump

On our way to Skaftafell, we parked at a pull-off on Skeiðarársandur to admire the mountains under a perfect clear sky.

This is Hvannadalshnjúkur¹, at 2110 m/6921 ft high its summit is the only ultra-prominent peak and the highest point in the country. The glacier surrounding it is the ice cap of Öræfajökull².

A colour photo of the top of a mountain under a clear cyan sky. The peak is a rounded hump covered in ice and nearby is an odd stump of rock sticking up through the glacier. The ice around it is smooth but with significant crevasses on the slopes. The foreground is the brown rock of other mountains. Strong sunlight is from the right.
