Gaussberg
Volcanic cone in Antarctica
Gaussberg is a 370-metre-high (1,210-foot) extinct volcanic cone in East Antarctica fronting on Davis Sea immediately west of Posadowsky Glacier. It is ice-free and conical in nature, having formed subglacially about 55,000 years ago. The current edifice is thought to be the remains of a once-larger mountain that has been reduced by glacial and subaerial erosion.
