Laugavegur - Day 2
Hranfntinnusker to Emstrur
Long day today. Had a walk across snow to start off with including a few snow bridges across gullies, they all held thankfully. Then near the end of the morning walk I was crossing off a bank onto some snow and went a bit too fast. Ended up on the ground banging my knee on the way down. It hurt for a while and cut my knee. Looked impressive with the blood but when I cleaned it later there wasn't much to talk about.
Stopped for lunch at a hut. Then in the afternoon there were 3 streams/rivers to cross which were very cold. Can't say I enjoyed those crossings. Then we had some long flat walking through a sandy area. Small bit of climb to finish.
After dinner we went for a couple of km walk to see a gorge. Very impressive.
