About Þröngubásar
„Upp frá Þjórsá rís Búðarháls í stöllum, einkum þar sem Básar eða Þröngubásar heita, er sagt að þar séu 18 pallar en víða eru þeir sundur skornir af giljum sem torfært er yfir. Mest þeirra er Stóragil. (...) Í Básum og víða með Þjórsá er vel gróið en annars er hálsinn næsta gróðurlítill, þakinn melum og söndum.“
