Skessuhorn, 3173 feet (967 m), is an outstanding peak when viewed from the north. Skessuhorn is located in Borgarfjörður County.

On a personal note: This is the view my friend Vigfús "Fúsi" Vigfússon
had from his agricultural college many years ago; I took the reference 
photo on a stop while we were driving in this area.
