Yotsume Rocks (69°44′S 38°7′E) is a group of four distinct rock exposures on the ice-covered north side of Djupvikneset Peninsula, along the southwest shore of Lutzow-Holm Bay. First mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936-37. Surveyed by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE), 1957-1962, and named Yotsume-iwa (the rock with four eyes).
