We awoke to clear sunny sky’s and set off to climb Mt Krisinartindar (1126m). The route passes close to Svartifoss, a large waterfall famous for its black basalt columns. A shortly after this we got our first clear view of the mountain. The path continues across moorland to the edge of two large glaciers. A short rocky scramble leads to the summit ridge with some 
magnificent views in all directions. 
Whilst enjoying the views we watched and heard a large avalanche occurring over a large cliff edge at the head of the next valley.
The evening was spent trying to obtain accurate and consistent weather forecasts for the area to help plan the timing on our summit attempt. This proved to be much more difficult than normal.
