We go in winter pretty exclusively so Hornstrandir hasn’t been an option for us, but it’s a very committed trip to be sure. Be safe and have the very best time, I’m jealous! 19 hours ago, L.I.Pete said: This is my plan too. Had to work for this one. . Got stuck in Reykjavik because of airline delays back in September last year coming back from another backpacking trip in Scotland. We ended up staying the night and had a blast with some locals downtown. We've been looking for an excuse to go back and the eclipse seems perfect. I'm worried with how busy the ferry businesses will be but we're gonna make the effort. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reykjavik remains one of the absolute coolest towns I've ever been to in my life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad that some of the areas that looked unfavorable on the guidance actually had good views of the solar eclipse. The National Blend of Models did quite well within 36 hours for some areas, but not all. The GFS might have done worst of all, though I didn't check it once I had departed for the eclipse. As long as you got at least 100 miles north or east of Syracuse you were in good shape. Watertown only had some high thin cirrus clouds! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rygar Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 What an incredible experience. Lifetime highlight. I did screw up my timelapse though, so that was ruined, but i will never forget looking through binoculars during totality. Truly awe inspiring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The City had planned a huge event and it was important that things worked out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was kinda cool watching the high clouds drift by the eclipse from time to time . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
