Narrative

An ice-covered mountain over 800 m, situated 3 mi N of Mount Friesland in eastern Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands. The origin of the name is uncertain; it appears (poorly positioned and probably intended for some other peak on the island) on the 1829 chart of the British expedition (1828-31) under Capt. Henry Foster in the Chanticleer.
