88 Degrees East
The coastal "motorway" that links the Icelanders together is usually referred to less euphemistically by continental tourists who are used to asphalt or concrete. But to some Icelandic off-road enthusiasts it is much too smooth and unchallenging. Therefore they decided to cross the country through the uninhabited highlands from the est to the east. 800 kilometers of lava, strong rivers, mud and glaciers required specially adapted vehicles, but when winter suddenly fell with thick snow and serious accidents, the future of even the most carefully prepared expedition was thrown into jeopardy.
