renault Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 It's off the beaten path but definitely worth a visit. It's a bit deceptive as the altitude is a lot higher than one would expect. Glad I had a "turbo" , as I first tried the Edgely and that was a bit of a struggle. Cheers Renault Orbx Iceland Freeware Mesh The latitude and longitude are given on the first screenshot and will put you in the vicinity. It certainly looks volcanic and I half expected to see a steam vent or worse as I went over. Fine particles of pulverized rock called "glacial flour" absorb and scatter sunlight in ways that can give melt water a wonderful blue-green color. The lichen is spectacular I thought. I've never seen 3 glaciers merging IRL and I've seen a fair number over the years. This is pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTigerM Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Fascinating set from your personal aircraft. I did note the color coordination between the Karitane Yellow shades of brown in the rocks & the accent browns on the sides of the aircraft. Nice touch TTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice touch TTM Thanks TTM - "I think" I hadn't noticed until you pointed that out. I'm not sure you are complimenting or the opposite But if you've had kids , you come to realize that it is a fact of life. It's surprising though how often it occurs in nature Cheers Pete PS - maybe avoiding Dunedin, NZ might be a good move as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
