Brattstrand Bluffs

The Brattstrand Bluffs are rock cliffs on the coast of Antarctica, about 6 kilometres (4 mi) east-north-east of Hovde Island and Amanda Bay. They were first mapped from aerial photographs taken by the Norwegian Lars Christensen Expedition of 1936, and named Brattstranda ("abrupt shore").[1]
