Story
One crazy aurora chasing night near our cabin in Selfoss. It was very cloudy and some of our guys already went to bad and few stayed up in the hope there would come some clearings in the clouds and snow showers. Our wishes were granted when some large openings came during the night and braught some very nice auroras which was pretty active before going more static at the end of our observation.
