Gullfoss - Iceland

Here are some pictures from our trip to Gullfoss, a big waterfall in Southwest Iceland.

This is the upper observation point for the waterfall. (Notice the sexy guy with his back to the camera.)

You'll notice the goat path on the left photo. It had been raining on and off all morning, and between that and the compacting of the snow by people using the path had left a very icy trail. After Willie and I made it to the bottom safe, we then had to do the climb back. As long as you can grab that rope when you fall, you'll live. If you miss the rope, they'll never find you! Most of the white stuff is ice, not snow.
