 Too many trees certainly. But I was there in summer; quite green in many places. And I was in a few places with both natural and planted tree cover. It's not like they don't have *any* trees. For example, there's a big lake in the north with a forest of leafy trees like in the video around half of it. [fires up maps] Ahh, 'Myvatn'. 3 comments
I'll admit 'lush' is not a word that applies to most of Iceland. There are a few spots with a lot of vegetation, but 'few' is the operative word. Most of the place barely has enough vegetation to support the omnipresent sheep. So, I'll concede the point. It *could be* Iceland, but it's *not at all likely to be* Iceland. That said, the tunnel I'm thinking of was in a less green spot. It was near the ocean and the vegetation was moss and grass. Also the tunnel only had places in the middle where it looked like a raw volcanic tube; the entrances and sections inside were more 'engineered'. |

@jackwilliambell @Edwin085 It's the ground cover more than the trees tbh. At the end, it's lush, much more so than anywhere I've been in Iceland
