Golden Showers.

from Crotty Farm Report

Gullfoss, or "Golden Falls," is a spectacular two-tiered waterfall in southwest Iceland, formed by the glacial meltwater from the Hvítá river, which originates from the Langjökull glacier. The waterfall derives its name from the golden-brown color the water can take on during a bright, sunny day. It is a major attraction on Iceland's popular Golden Circle tour (which we took) and is known for its powerful flow, misty environment, and the potential for rainbows on sunny days (we caught a double rainbow). The waterfall is a protected site, saved from hydroelectric development by the early 20th-century efforts of Sigríður Tómasdóttir, Iceland's first environmentalist.Enjoy the Crotty video!Crotty Farm Report is a reader-supported publication.
