Sigmar, Star-Oddis (wwww.star-oddi.com) managing director, took a trip to Eyjafjallajökull to view the volcanic eruption. In order to go on the glacier you need a specially equipped truck (4×4 truck), a snowmobile or embark on a 6 hour hike. Whichever method you choose you need to be well prepared. Sigmar and his family arrived in a truck and the way there was bumpy and felt like you were on the open sea. They stopped closed to where the lava was flowing and were able to get excellent video of the lava flow coming down like fiery waterfalls. The ice and snow lay like chunks of gray rock amongst the cooled down lava. As the eruption became stronger the search and rescue teams that are monitoring the area asked everyone to move away from the lava streams. Sigmar and his family moved to higher ground. As they returned to their vehicle you can see just how many people were there. They passed a line of cars as they were leaving and it felt like a busy shopping day at the mall. The view from atop a mountain top was great but not as awe-inspiring as the close up one. After awhile the weather conditions changed and it became foggy and more ash started to fall, a coast guard helicopter came and ordered everyone off the glacier and closed off the road to incoming traffic. It was a great experience, the weather was great, the volcano was awesome and all in all a once in a lifetime experience that Sigmar wants to share with all our customers and friends.
