A mountain range consisting of Mount Hochlin and associated features, lying just W of Kaye Crest in the Muhlig-Hofmann Mountains of Queen Maud Land. The name "Preuschoff-Rucken" was applied in the general area by the GerAE under Ritscher, 1938-39, for Franz Preuschoff, engineer on the flying boat name with this feature may be arbitrary but is recommended for the sake of international uniformity and historical continuity. |
