We took this photo somewhere along the way. It's typical of the impressive mountains all over Iceland. If you know the name of it, please let me know.
This is what Strokkur looks like when there are 50-60 mph winds. On a nice day it is much more impressive.
A couple of times I felt my feet lifting off the ground. This picture was taken at around the time I had to stop walking toward Strokkur because of the tiny pebbles lashing my face.
