Iceland is a cheat code for photos. You can't walk 5 steps without tripping over an outrageous display of natural beauty splayed out under an ephemeral duvet of elven mystery

Amazing shot! Iceland defines desolate natural beauty.

"South Iceland"... sounds strange and unattainable

> Looks like the waterfall Sokka and his swordmaster visited in Avatar the Last Airbender.
Not quite. The waterfall they visit is quite literally the view from the upper viewing area of Gullfoss

I’ve hiked a lot in Alaska north of the arctic circle and love that wide open tundra. Iceland looks like it has that beauty on steroids. So amazing. Planning our first backpacking trip there next summer.

Foggy redwood seaside sunset! Super nice.

I've been there before and it still feels unbelievable when I look at pictures. I'm saving up to take my kids once they can make the climb up those stairs (it's a haul). My wife and I agreed Disney is overrated (similar price point for us) and our kids will appreciate seeing what beauty our world has to offer vs eating breakfast with some college girl cosplaying Minnie Mouse.

Maybe I'm weird but I think the surrounding landscape is more beautiful than the waterfall itself. That greenish brown with a little orange in it is gorgeous

I'm unaware, what does perfect lines mean?

In 2019 there was a pretty good trail, at least up to the top. We lost the trail up there, and just as well -- or we'd have been really climbing steep terrain!
After the fire of 2020, some of the trails might have gotten obscured.
That water is so clean and cold... The whole area is so quiet... Can't wait to get back out there.

I think they mean composition of the photo but I guess I can’t speak for them

Last winter was amazing. I live in Mission and the trails with all of the moss on the forest floor and the fog was incredible. I didn't make it very far into the forest because I just kept standing there and looking around in awe every 5 minutes. Great photo!

yeah definitely. I don't see any good lines there at all, it's a death trap. If you had to make a choice, I'd say the right side of the river left channel would be your best chance, but 100% no way this goes.

I'm going there for the first time in May and every photo on here I see makes me note it down. But I realise I have no chance to see it all in the time we have. Still excited though.

DV is definitely a “hidden gem” of a park that most people gloss over. There’s certainly a lot of heat, a lot of desert, etc. but there’s also amazing formations and views like OPs pic 👍🏽

Does being the perpetual victim feel good to you? Does it make you feel better about how you go through life? It seems like a disgusting and pitiful way to go through life, to see a self deprecating joke about someone not speaking a foreign language and turning it into some sort of imperialist attack on a language and people that you’re not even part of. I pity you.

The rainforest’s of western Tasmania would be rather similar I’d imagine. As would much of western South Island NZ.

And every couple years, usually a younger person, jumps and does not survive.
