The feature consists of a massive ridge with broken outcrops to the south and east. Mapped from air photos by the Lars Christensen Expedition (1936) and named Meknattane (the middle crags). Also photographed by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47). The geology of the feature was investigated by I.R.
