Iceland LXIII - Autumn Colors │ Part 159
* * * Most likely you will see the Northern Lights dancing in the sky. It is an unforgettable sight * * *
Although Iceland officially has only two seasons, winter and summer, technically, September, October, and November are considered autumn in Iceland.
You will be struck by the beauty of the landscape and the autumn colors. In addition to the expected tones of yellow, orange, and red, Iceland also offers pink, purple, and magenta. The colors are also a beautiful contrast to the blue glaciers and the gray sea.
By the end of August, days begin to shorten and the night returns slowly but surely, while the bright green grass gave fades to more autumnal orange colors. The beginning of September marks a turning point in average temperatures, as they drop steadily until they stabilize with the Icelandic winter. The nights are getting longer and the first Northern Lights begin to appear in the sky.

Deilir Mountain in Vonarskarð │ Iceland Photo Gallery
Vonarskarð er dalur eða háslétta milli Tungnafellsjökuls og Vatnajökuls. Það liggur lægst í um 940 m hæð yfir sjó, en fjöllin sem afmarka skarðið af til vesturs og austurs teygja sig upp undir 400 m yfir sléttuna. Handan þeirra rísa svo jöklarnir enn hærra, í vestri Tungnafellsjökull (1530 m h.y.s) og til austurs hvelfist Bárðarbunga (2000 m h.y.s), næst hæsta fjall landsins. Þar sem skarðið er þrengst eru ekki nema 12-13 km á milli jökla. Landslagsumgjörð Vonarskarðs er í senn stórbrotin og óvenjuleg. Dalbotninn er eilítið bungumyndaður, hæstur í miðjunni en hallar til norðurs og suðurs. Úr hlíðum fjallanna umhverfis skarðið blasa við meginvatnaskil á hálendi Íslands og upptök tveggja stórfljóta þar sem annað rennur til sjávar á Norðurlandi en hitt á Suðurlandi. Slík vatnaskil er hvergi hægt að sjá annars staðar á Íslandi og líklega óvíða annars staðar með sambærilegum hætti.
Sunnarlega í Vonarskarði rís stakt keilulaga fjall, Deilir. Syðst í skarðinu mynda svo tvö fjöll óvenjulega mynd. Skrauti er litauðugt líparítfjall í ljósum litum, hvítum, gráum, gulum, bleikum og appelsínugulum en upp að honum hallar sér hið blakka Kolufell. Á milli þeirra er Tvílitaskarð. Blettir með samfelldum gróðri eru við jarðhitann, en að auki er á sléttunni vestan Deilis nokkuð víðáttumikið svæði með samfelldum gróðri og kallast það Snapadalur. Yfirborðsummerki jarðhita í Vonarskarði eru fjölbreytt og í hverunum vaxa örverur sem hvergi hafa fundist annars staðar.
Vonarskarð er askja sem tengist samnefndri megineldstöð. Megineldstöðin er talin hafa verið lítillega virk á nútíma (Snorri Baldursson, 2006). Tungnafellsjökull vestan Vonarskarðs er talin vera önnur askja sömu megineldstöðvar.
Þótt háhitasvæðið í Vonarskarði sé ekki mjög stórt (ca. 10 km2 að flatarmáli) þykir það afar fjölbreytt og þar er hægt að sjá allar helstu gerðir yfirborðsfyrirbrigða sem fylgja háhitasvæðum. Háhitasvæðið þykir sérstætt sem kolsýruhverasvæði og móbergs- og líparítsvæði og enn fremur allsérstætt fyrir jarðhitasvæði á hálendinu þar sem volgar lindir og lækir renna frá því á mörgum stöðum
Bárðargata er kennd við landnámsmanninn Bárð sem sigldi norður fyrir landið upp Skjálfandafljót og nam land í Bárðardal og bjó að Lundarbrekkum. Bárður fann að sunnanáttin var hlýrri en norðanáttin og vildi flytja suður. Leiðin sem hann fór er kölluð Bárðargata og liggur frá Bárðardal, suður öræfin, sennilega með Skjálfandafljóti austanverðu, gegnum Vonarskarð og niður í Fljótshverfi, um 250 km leið, í allt að 1000 m hæð. Ferðina fór Bárður á útmánuðum þegar jökulárnar voru lagðar ís á árunum í kringum 874-930. Veðurfar hefur verið ólíkt því sem nú er, jöklar voru miklu minni en núna og jökulárnar sennilega mun auðveldari yfirferðar. Ferðin var farin með fjölskyldu og bústofn og hefur verið mikið þrekvirki.

The Pass of Hope is named after an event, which took place during the so-called Age of Settlement (874-930). The first settler in the Bardardalur valley in the North came to the conclusion, that the southerly winds were warmer than the northerly and decided to move to the south with all his belongings in the hope of finding better living conditions. He did so during winter, when all rivers were frozen over, and succeeded without incidents. The Bardur Route
Vonarskarð is a valley or plateau between Tungnafellsjökull and Vatnajökull. It is lowest at about 940 m above sea level, but the mountains that define the pass to the west and east stretch below 400 m above the plain. Beyond them, the glaciers rise even higher, to the west Tungnafellsjökull (1530 m asl) and to the east, Bárðarbunga (2000 m asl), the second highest mountain in the country. Where the pass is narrowest, there are only 12-13 km between glaciers. Vonarskarð's landscape setting is both spectacular and unusual. The valley floor is slightly bulging, highest in the middle but sloping to the north and south. From the slopes of the mountains around the pass you can see the main watershed in the highlands of Iceland and the source of two large rivers where one flows to the sea in the North and the other in the South. Such a watershed can not be seen anywhere else in Iceland and probably in many other places in a similar way.
To the south of Vonarskarð rises a single conical mountain, Deilir. To the south of the pass, two mountains form an unusual picture. Skrauti is a colorful liparite mountain in light colors, white, gray, yellow, pink and orange, but up to it slopes the rugged Kolufell. Between them is Tvílitaskarð. There are patches of continuous vegetation near the geothermal heat, but in addition, on the plain west of Deilis there is a fairly extensive area with continuous vegetation and it is called Snapadalur. The surface signs of geothermal energy in Vonarskarð are varied and microbes grow in the hot springs that have not been found anywhere else.
Vonarskarð is a caldera associated with the eponymous main volcano. The main volcano is believed to have been slightly active in modern times (Snorri Baldursson, 2006). Tungnafellsjökull west of Vonarskarð is considered to be another caldera of the same main volcano.
Although the high-temperature area in Vonarskarð is not very large (approx. 10 km2 in area), it is considered very diverse and there you can see all the main types of surface phenomena that accompany high-temperature areas. The high-temperature area is considered unique as a carbon dioxide area and tuff and liparite area, and also very special for geothermal areas in the highlands where warm springs and streams flow from it in many places.

Rafn Sig is a Native Icelandic Landscape and Nature Documentary Video/Photographer and musician.
"For me, photography is a story I can't put into words".
If you are looking for videos from Iceland that are different from all other videos on YouTube, you have come to the right place.
This channel shows you breathtaking hidden places you didn't know existed and updates you on what is happening in Iceland.
I’m also Documenting places Icelanders cares about and are fading out due to many reasons.
Iceland may be a small island but like “Another World”.
We have places and nature like nowhere else in the World and that is what I’m documenting for you to enjoy and for educational purposes.
To finalize the magic of my videos, I’m composing, playing, and recording my own mystical music that fits each video's content to make it more meaningful and for you to enjoy it in more depth. Give yourself the luxury of watching each video to the end to witness all the magic.
Regards
