Eidshaugane Peaks

The Eidshaugane Peaks (71°40′S 11°46′E) are a group of peaks 1 nautical mile (2 km) north of Eidsgavlen Cliff in the Humboldt Mountains of Queen Maud Land. They were discovered and photographed by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39. They were mapped from air photos and surveys by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60, and named Eidshaugane (the isthmus hills).[1]
