Hi,
last week i’ve been climbing with Franco the following routes.
-Glymur allur in Glymur, good conditions with first 2 pitches a bit wet
-Orion in Flugugill, good conditions, a lot of snow on the approach, cauliflower ice on the first pitch and good ice on second. V-thread at the end of ice without topping out because of inconsistent snow on the last slope.
-Lost and found in Grundarfjordur (next to Grundarfoss) more info soon (WI5-6ish)
-Þvergill in Myrarhyrna quite a bit of snow and crost on easy pitches. WI3 refer only to the technical grade, but a general grade would be harder because of the length and complexity of rappelling down. Don’t take it easy!
General conditions around RVK were pretty good as on the way north and in GRundarfjordur.
Conditions in the south are poor on low elevation.
