Mosbytoppane, Summit in Bouvet Island, Norway
Mosbytoppane features two prominent crags rising to 670 meters above sea level, located southwest of the central caldera on Bouvet Island.
The Norwegian expedition team led by Captain Harald Horntvedt mapped and documented this geographical formation during their 1927-1928 scientific mission.
The mountain received its name in recognition of Hakon Mosby, an oceanographer and meteorologist who participated in the original Norwegian expedition.
Access to this remote mountain requires special permits from Norwegian authorities and advanced polar expedition equipment due to extreme weather conditions.
The summit stands as one of the southernmost mountains of Norway, situated on an uninhabited volcanic island in the South Atlantic Ocean.
