    Climbed yesterday in Eastern part of Hlaðhamrar in Mulafjall.
    Some lines are ok, ice was wet and was snowing. a lot of umbrellas formed. we started exploring a new sector of the cliff more east then Musarindill A1 after the gully.

    Climbed Kleifarfoss in Hvalfjordur. ok conditions.
    went checking in Brynjudalur: looks Orion and Yringur are ok but the rest of the valley looks very thin and only easy grades are climbable (not WI4 and above).
    Some lines in Mulafjall looks ok
    Eilifsdalur also looks to have ice but could not understand well because the sun was just above the lines and couldn’t see much.
    Vestrurbrunir Esja looks dry

    Saturday went in Eyjafjöll and climbed „Daylightful “ WI5 left of Canada dry (new route)
    Monday went in Glymsgill area and climbed „Serial hunter“ WI4 (new route)
    Today went in Glymsgill and climbed the full Glymur waterfall from the bottom and on the top part on the right. Canyon is very easy at the moment with only a pool to be crossed carefully on the ice on the right.

    Hi,
    prolific week in SKaftafell with Bart and Brook.
    we climbed:
    Hundafoss
    Svartifoss
    New line in Grænafjall left of Grænafjallsglifur 350m WI3/+
    New line along the path to Skaftafellsjokull 60m WI2 (right of Shameless)
    New line in Svinafell 30m WI4/+ left of BLika
    Heimahagi WI3/+

    Soon I’ll upload the new lines.
    Conditions are very good with some lines that haven’t been formed for years.
    Same story for the entire South coast and in particular Ejyafjoll.

    Hi, looks some holds broke down in the first 2 routes (dihedral and left ).
    the routes are still possible but bit more insecure then before, in particular the dihedral.
    I’ll try to fix them the sooner

    If you brake something please let me know that I’ll try to fix ASAP.

    Andrea and me went to Þorisjökull, tried Birkitréð but was too much rhyme. Then we went to the extreme right and climb „Istinto Apuano“ (Apuaniska eðlishvöt) M4 60m. The route follows the evident gully with some rock protections (BD2, BD1, pink tricam, n9 and n13 BD nuts).

    Manage to send N12 yesterday, I think it is D8, very tricky. Long reaches and poor feet at the last bolt to cross the roof. 8 quickdraw needed

    Routes length:
    1-5 is about 20m
    6-7-8-9 are the same but the wall is so overhanging that when you lower you end 10m below the start, so would say 30m
    10-12 are short, maybe 15m

    Went to Þilið today with Andrea and Matteo. we climbed two pitches and then rappelled down. there are big umbrellas and the cornice on top is huge. the entire sector looks in good conditions.
    we left the car at the fence and took 2h for the approach.

    Went to Hvalfjordur-Reynivallaháls and climbed route n30 Nóngil http://www.isalp.is/en/problem/nongil with andrea and Matteo. we did 9 pitches, all about 50m and only one of 30m. except one, the rest they have steps to climb. Very nice route, highly recommended. We did the left branch on the top.
    Carpark at Stepji natural monument. Approach 10min and descent by a slope east then the route (there is also a gully that can be used).

    Went to Hvalfjordur at Hvamsvik and climbed what is most likely Stufur WI3. The pillar is hollow and has water inside, after today is going to be really dangerous to climb it. More potential for the spot. Mind the tide to access the place.

    Went to Blikdalur and climbed 2 new routes with Andrea. we did the approach from Esjustofa, took 2,5h and 2h back. Conditions are good, very hard snow on the approach and every slope. we used a gully on the right to descend and climb the second route and the attempt of the 3rd.
    First line: WI4 40m, WI3 40m, WI3 30m, 110m belay on rocks on top.
    Second line: WI3+ 55m, WI3 55m, 110m belay on ice on the top

    Went to North ridge of Skessuhorn today with Andrea. good conditions. the NW wall instead looks very dry, maybe climbable.
    We did a drive on the way back, looks there are many lines to climb a bit everywhere. high elevation is better.

    Went to Blikdalur yesterday and climbed Vegvísir with Andrea. We choose the approach from the truck scale next to the Hvalfjordur tunnel and took us 3h; first 45-60 min you follow a jeep track then is nothing to follow except staying close to the stream. Need to cross a lot of small gully and stream.
    The route is fun and we did in 3 pitches; first a solid WI4 looks like a slab (40m), then a WI4+ of a pillar (30m). The last one cross some umbrellas and it is quite tricky (WI4, 30m). Descent is by a slope on the left of the route. We left the backpack at the bottom. The way back is is just slightly quicker (2.5h). There is another approach form Esja Steinn, going over the mountain and lower to the route; watch out at avalanche terrain! Probably slightly shorter.

    With Andrea went to Weird Girl in Skálafell.
    The route is a bit shorter then picture because of snow collecting in the gully. Good rock to belay on the top on the left.
    very short climbing at the moment, 30mish, not suggested.

    We did also a scouting drive in Hvalfjordur and Borgarnes area.
    -Kjos there is something but looks in November conditions
    -Mulafjall not that much but easy lines are probably climbable
    -Villingadalur looks in good conditions
    -Skessuhorn we couldn’t see
    -Bolaklettur looks in early season conditions
    -Grafarfoss probably climbable
    -Buahamrar is getting there

    Went to Bolakletur with Andrea yesterday and climbed the river Árdalsá with 2 pitches and then 2 more little steps in solo WI3.

    Today with Andrea and Brook went to Brattabrekka and climbed Single malt on the rocks. The entire river is frozen and the line is nice. Some petals on the crux pitch make this a bit more challenging. Last pitches on ice.
