Default 2019 Iceland Overland Expedition

From September 2011 to September 2013 I used to live and work in New Jersey but I am actually from Germany. During my time at the east coast I bought a pre-owned 2007 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon in Pennsylvania and I took the Jeep with me when I moved back to Germany. Before I moved back home I did most of the modifications including the suspension lift with basic tools in the parking lot of the development that I used to live at. I still own the Jeep and I have found a very experienced US car dealer in my neck of the woods who takes good care of her. However most of the repairs and maintenance I still take care of on my own until today.

The reason why I still own this Jeep Wrangler is of course memories but also my passion for wrenching and wheeling as well as landscape photography and filmmaking. One of the most fascinating destinations that you can access with your Jeep from Europe is Iceland. I have been there with the Wrangler in 2015, 2017 and 2019. The last two trips did I with a buddy who runs a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ 5.2L. Actually I talked him into the Jeep thing and I got him hooked on all the modifications. You can check out some photos that I took on flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/136304119@N07/albums

But of course this thread is about a video, actually my first project that I have ever uploaded to YouTube. This video features our latest overland expedition to Iceland and it is only the first part of a two part adventure:


If you are interested in the GPS data of my tracks, you can download them from AllTrails: https://www.alltrails.com/members/se...pesdicek/lists
For my next project I may want to look into Gaia GPS as an alternative option for GPS planning.

If you like the content, buy me a coffee.

Amazing trip! Hard to find the road in the river bottom? Looks like a great adventure!
