[mountains] forming north side of Right Valley; snow-patch on summit extreme right is turn of range to north, where it is seen forming western side of Main Valley.

In background on right; southern terminal of mountains forming eastern side of Kjerulfs [Kjerulf] Fjord. Here they are seen on the S.W. end, overlooking Hisinger glacier [Hisinger Gletscher] as seen in photos: 26-H-23 and 26-H-25, at the most northern point reached by the glacier and at what L.A.B. calls The Divide. In foreground: Hisinger Glacier [Hisinger Gletscher] full of hummocks and crevasses. Here it rounds to E.N.E. at base of L.A.B's Scoop Mt. [Mountain]. Photo taken looking N.W. Note: This photo shows more of southern terminal of range of mts. [mountains] forming east side of Kjerulfs [Kjerulf] Fjord and less of Currycomb [Curry-comb] Peak and practically all of west side of Left Valley but little of southern terminal of east range of Kjerulfs [Kjerulf] Fjord.
