Name ID: 132282
Place ID: 14163
A mountain, 2,970 m, standing 2 mi SE of Beck Peak on a ridge from the N side of Nilsen Plateau, in the Queen Maud Mountains. Mapped by USGS from surveys and USN air photos, 1960-64. Named by US-ACAN for Jorgen Stubberud, carpenter on the ship Fram and member of the land party at Framheim on Amundsen's expedition of 1910-12. This naming preserves the spirit of Amundsen's 1911 commemoration of "Mount J. Stubberud," a name applied for an unidentifiable mountain in the general area. |
