Kyrkjebønosi

This valley floor rests below a ceiling of cloud. quiet and calm chimney smoke hangs without breath to steer it and we are walking free of the treeline. the sea below reals in colour, lapping at the white peaks parting glimpses of the valley floor. sparkling shards cover my flannel, trailing gauper foot prints. canyons follow ravines follow gullies, valleys, ridges to distant frozen plateau. earth takes me high, snow takes me higher.

a pre dawn hike today to the summit of Kyrkjebønosi (1610msl) with Jim and Jonte (thanks for shooting some of this pics jonte!)
