A rainbow appears over the lava field

Fjallabak Nature Reserve contained Landmannalaugar but also much more. Each turn brought snow-covered mountains, charred lava fields with gentle layers of moss, dark blue lakes in ancient calderas, and frigid streams tumbling from the cliffs. A light mist filled the air to create intense full-horizon rainbows that never seemed to fade. Occasionally sheep appeared between the rocks and high upon the mountainsides but otherwise little else survived in the remoteness.
