I have found a troll!! During our canyon hike, I came upon him. According to Icelandic troll legend, if a "little person"/troll/fairy stays out past sunrise, they are made into pillars of rock. Trolls in Iceland are of the naughty and tricky in nature and love to haunt people and play jokes. But they must come inside once the sun rises. The good Iceland fairy will turn those bad trolls into rocks. How about these trolls! Can you see them? With these rock formations, I can really see how these people can be spooked into seeing gnomes!

MaryJo,
These are great pictures! I think this would be a good location for Bryan's company to have a convention since they are in the geology field.
See you soon!
Hey! They must have been vrey bad trolls. Creepy rock faces!
Wow all the photos are awesome! Thanks.
Where is the ice in Iceland? These pictures look like if you are in Hawaii. I have seen those trolls in the Lord of the Rings.
