Name ID: 130446
Place ID: 11729
A mountain resembling a pyramid, rising to 2,120 m between Turnabout Valley and the mouth of Beacon Valley, in the Quartermain Mountains, Victoria Land. The name seems first to appear on maps of the BrAE (R.F. Scott), 1910-13, but the mountain was almost certainly seen for the first time during Scott's first expedition, 1901-04. |
