The gulley at Hlöðuvellir in Hlöðufell. The easiest way to climb the mountain is on the left hand side of the gulley.

Field work, Haraldur Gunnarsson and Gunnar Sigurðsson drilling in Þórólfsfell, north of Hlöðufell, September 2014.
Sample place in Þórólsfell, ready for orientation. Most likely sample place HF-B since there seems to be a problem with cores number 1, 5 and 11, see photo below. To have those 8 cores, 17 holes were made. Pillow lava is not the easiest one for core sampling!
