Storm Mountain, Falkland Islands

Storm Mountain is on West Falkland in the Falkland Islands. It is 1,709 feet (521 m) high (the 9th highest in the Falkland[1]). Because of its location on a narrow peninsula jutting out into the South Atlantic, between Byron Sound and King George Bay, it is highly exposed, whence its name.
