Mount Lagally

Mount Lagally (67°9′S 67°6′W / 67.15°S 67.1°W / -67.15; -67.1) is a mountain standing 3 nautical miles (6 km) south of Vanni Peak in the Dorsey Mountains, on Arrowsmith Peninsula in Graham Land. It was mapped by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) from surveys and air photos, 1956–59, and was named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Max Lagally (1881–1945), a German mathematician and glaciologist who made studies of the mass and heat balance of glaciers.
