Mallemuk Mountain

[3] Administratively it is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park zone.

This mountain was named by the ill-fated Denmark expedition[4] after the numerous colonies of northern fulmars breeding in the cliffs.

[5] Mallemuk Mountain is located by the Dijmphna Sound in the southeastern shore of Holm Land, in the King Frederick VIII Land area of northeastern Greenland.

[6] For former expeditions to remote NE Greenland Mallemuk Mountain was useful as a landmark for its conspicuous cliffs.

[4] Although the sea in the area is permanently covered by fast ice, off the feet of the cliffs there is often open water.
