From my single experience in Iceland a sturdy tripod is even more important than WP lenses, especially if using ND filters. I took a Manfrotto tripod I use for my 4X5 camera and it was not always enough, in fact there was one time that we more worried about being blown off the cliff than getting a photo. And I live in southern Alberta where winds of 100 kph are not unheard of.
However I was using mostly my Hasselblad hence if the rain was hard I could spare my Pentax for quick shots.
Enjoy yourself it is a great place, at least the little part I saw. And don't be like me and come down with a very bad case of bronchitis while there. I plan on stopping over there for a week next summer or fall on the trip to the Hebrides my wife and I have planned.

Edit take along some shower caps if you don't buy a raincoat for your camera. They do help and are very easy to use with your prime lenses.
