Deildegasten Ridge

Deildegasten Ridge (71°29′S 12°42′E) is a ridge about 5 nautical miles (10 km) long which rises just south of Deildedalen Valley in the Östliche Petermann Range, Wohlthat Mountains, Queen Maud Land. It was discovered and plotted from air photos by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39. It was replotted from air photos and surveys by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60, and named Deildegasten.

In Norwegian folklore, deildegasten was the ghost of a person that while living was guilty of moving border marks (deilder). After death, the person had to carry the deilde (most often a stone) around until the spot where it had been was found, an impossible task.
