Mount Sulur

Mount Súlur is a mountain just outside Akureyri in Iceland. Going against advice given by the tourist information centre, the Colonel's Regiment walked up it during Mission 13 13 25 Reykjavík. The journey to the summit took four and a half hours and the trail disappeared beneath the snow frequently. The regiment eventually reached the summit after contending with knee deep snow, steep ascents and many tumbles.

The summit is marked by a shoulder-height grignak and a visitor's book which the regiment signed. The view from the top of Mount Súlur is incredible, with the fjord and surrounding mountain range visible. Once the Colonel's Regiment had reached the summit, they celebrated a successful ascent by sharing some Dan Cake. The journey down took a mere two hours and forty minutes. The regiment eventually arrived back in town at 9.10p.m. after some eight hours tackling the mountain.
