Bleikskoltane Rocks

The Bleikskoltane Rocks (72°16′S 27°22′E) are a rocky outcrop 7 nautical miles (13 km) south of Balchen Mountain in the southeast part of the Sør Rondane Mountains. The feature was mapped in 1957 by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and named "Bleikskoltane" (the "pale knolls").[1]
