re: Traveling to Iceland in late Feb

I'll be laying over Saturday and Sunday and will post after I get back.

The forecast sucks arse (rain and snow) so it looks like no northern lights. From what I've read the wind is usually a bigger problem than the cold, the ocean keeps things close to freezing in the winter.

I'm going to try to drive the Golden Circle on Saturday. Sunday I'll probably have to stick around Reykjavik since snow is forecast.

I'm just planning on blue jeans and a good down coat, and a merino wool base, and cold weather hiking boots, and an umbrella.

Driving around the island for 10 days in the summer is on my bucket list.
