It's only a few moments of video but amply shows the drama that took place when an Icelandic farmer checked his horses and found them stranded by a blizzard that covered the countryside in ten feet of snow in some areas. There horses were pastured on a mountain side and Icelandic Horses are well equipped to withstand their extreme environment. But, the incredible snowfall and 149 mph winds was for many the worst snowstorm in memory.
