Eiríksjökull
About
Eiríksjökull is a glacier north-west of Langjökull in Iceland, with an area of 22 km2 (8. 5 sq mi) reaching a height of 1,675 m (5,495 ft), atop the largest table mountain in Iceland which goes by the same name.
The blue of glacial ice is something photos can't capture. You have to see it in person.
Never walk on glaciers without a guide and proper equipment. Crevasses can be hidden by snow bridges.
