Mount Lupa

Mount Lupa (68°26′S 66°43′W / 68.433°S 66.717°W / -68.433; -66.717) is a flat-topped, ice-covered mountain over 1,625 m, standing between Romulus Glacier and Martin Glacier close east-southeast of Black Thumb and 5 nautical miles (9 km) east of the head of Rymill Bay, on the west coast of Graham Land. First roughly surveyed in 1936 by the BGE under Rymill. Resurveyed in 1948-49 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) who applied the name. This mountain lies near the heads of Romulus and Remus Glaciers, and the name derives from the mythological story of the she-wolf which fed these twins after they had been thrown into the Tiber.
