Narrative

A rock peak on the Ingrid Christensen Coast of Princess Elizabeth Land. It was mapped from air photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition (1936-37). It was fixed by triangulation from an astrofixed baseline by an ANARE party from Davis led by William Young in 1963. Note by HAB 4/4/2013 - It was originally named Svartmulen. Hansen chart 10 was used to identify the location of the feature as it is not shown on any other map and the ASTRO fix is not in the survey control database.
