Preuschoff Range

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Preuschoff Range (72°4′S, 4°3′E) is a mountain range consisting of Mount Hochlin and associated features, lying just west of Kaye Crest in the Muhlig-Hofmann Mountains of Queen Maud Land. The name "Preuschoff-Rucken" was applied in the general area by the German Antarctic Expedition 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.
