</end quote></div>Question for IcelandATV. Is it true that Iceland is green, and Greenland is icy?</end quote></div>
Iceland has a lot to offer for quad enthusiast. Unbridged rivers in the highlands, Sandy deserts, small forrests, lush green valleys and fjords, steep mountains and glaciers. Just name it, you'll find it in Iceland. It is a dream country for quadriding. I might organize a tour for those who are interested in coming to Iceland for a quad tour in the future?
As for your question Jumbofrank: It is so much more green then Greenland.
Greenland is mostly covered with one huge glacier and along the coastline you have barren granite mountains and very little soil. A tough country to live in.
Well, back to RTFM.
Question: How does one post photos in a thread??
Here you will find some photos both from Greenland and Iceland.

Nice pics. But now I find myself hungry and craving reindeer. I've had a couple of kinds of venison and assume that's just as tasty. I know Iceland uses a lot of geothermal power, and has a language too difficult for someone like me to pick up. It's a beautiful place, and I remember seeing somethng about a huge genetic study there. Iceland was very important in the Cold War but I never really knew much else about it.
I remember hearing that the name Greenland was thought up just to trick people into going there. They must have expected a lush green, fertile land, but when they get there it's just a rock covered with ice. That's why I had the idea Greenland is icy and Iceland is green.
