From Skarsvag, we rode snow scooters the 15 km to the North Cape, where hundreds of tourists gather in the summer; on March 22, 1992, we were the only ones there with our drivers. On the way back, we were allowed to drive ourselves on the plateau.

Europe's northernmost fishing village Skarsvag on the North Cape island Mageroya, about 15 km from the North Cape, in March 1992. In winter, the road is only cleared up to here; the North Cape is purely a tourist station and uninhabited in winter.

Nammalakuru shelter in the Palastunturi near Muonio on the Finnish-Swedish border in March 1994, a snowy winter in this area. A cross-country ski trail passes by the shelter, and there are about 1000 km of trails in the entire area, making it a beautiful region in such weather.

Bridge over the Jokulsa a Fjöllum River near Asbyrgi Road 85 Husavik - Kopasker in June 1997, the road partly runs along a scenic route on the north coast, below on the beach lie tree trunks that are washed ashore by the current from North America and processed by the Icelanders into construction timber.

Dettifoss waterfall, 100 m wide, 45 m high, on the Jokulsa a Fjöllum river in June 1997. The 28 km long  road  from the Ring Road to the waterfall was the worst I have ever driven on with a car in 1997, a dirt and mud track with puddles up to 30 cm deep, I was glad I didn't get stuck. On the way back, I took a 150 km detour via Husavik to get back to the Ring Road.

Solfatara field Namaskardi 6 km east of Lake Myvatn on the Ring Road in June 1997, with mud pots, steam columns, and the smell of sulfur. Leaving the marked paths is dangerous; you can break through, and underneath it can be up to 200 degrees hot!

Northeast of Lake Myvatn, diatomaceous earth was mined and processed into diatomite at this plant, which is environmentally controversial. According to Wikipedia, the plant has since been closed and dismantled. Photographed in June 1997.

Fissure near Lake Myvatn, formed by the drifting apart of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, which can move up to 20 cm per year. The gap is filled with magma, which rarely reaches the Earth's surface, but water can penetrate and evaporate due to heating.
