Leapin’ lizards, Signal! Geocachers and film buffs collide at this chilly cache. Batman Begins is part of the Icelandic Filming Location Geotrail.

Just when they were about to give up, their geo-senses led them to a suspicious boulder. What they found behind it would turn their lives into an unending adventure, and inspire Neil to travel halfway around the world.
