Iceland Day 9 - Stuðlagil Canyon
Started the day out with some amazing basalt formations, and even got to meet the landowner! caden_eyler had a full conversation with the (giant) shepherd about importing steel, while I took pictures of his tiny sheep. Incredibly nice guy, and very interesting to hear about his plans to improve the site, and his experience with Parka (the paid parking app used around the island). Ended the day with sulfur vents, a hidden cave, and a thermal bath.
