Raudberg Valley

Raudberg Valley (72°39′S 3°26′W) is the main ice-filled valley, about 20 nautical miles (37 km) long, extending northeastward through the Borg Massif of Queen Maud Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from surveys and air photos by Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (NBSAE) (1949–52) and named for its proximity to Raudberget.

Raudberget

Raudberget (72°38′S 3°30′W) is a prominent mountain just northeast of Hogskavlen Mountain in the Borg Massif of Queen Maud Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from surveys and air photos by Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (NBSAE) (1949–52) and named Raudberget (the red mountain).
