Eckhörner Peaks

The Eckhörner Peaks (71°31′S 11°27′E) are a series of about six peaks that form the north wall of Schussel Cirque, in the north-central Humboldt Mountains of Queen Maud Land. They were discovered and given the descriptive name "Eck-Hörner" (corner peaks) by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39, under Alfred Ritscher.[1]
