Truck pictures from
Einar Kjartansson
Here are some pictures from my good friend Einar Kjartansson. They are from various journeys around Iceland in the wintertime.
This is Einar in his Cherokee '95 preparing to cross a river. The banks are about a meter high and the water is perhaps 30 cm deep.
Two ready and able trucks. A Toyota Land Cruiser and a Nissan Patrol. Both sporting 38" tires.
Here the course is taken to Langjökull (Long Glacier).
Einar preparing the high-lift jack to get out of a stuck.
The Cherokee has air-springs in the rear and 36" Mudder tires.
Helpfulness is customary in 4x4 travels in Iceland.
Here a Toyota 4Runner is pulling a Nissan Patrol from a stuck, close to Hrafntinnusker.
Birgir's Toyota Land Cruiser broke an axle and was fixed in less than half an hour!
Preparing a barbeque in the snow.
This picture shows how the hut at Grimsfjall in Vatnajökull gathers ice and snow from the high storms.
Taking a stop at Grimsfjall.
Two friends standing in front of a big Toyota Land Cruiser.
A Nissan Patrol cruising on full throttle!
Nothing less than 38" tires will do.
The natural spring water pool at Landmannalaugar is a good resting place after a long journey.
Einar and a few of his friends from the Gutti travel group showing how much they love 4x4 off roads traveling!
More pictures from Einar can be found at the Gutti travel group site (in icelandic).
