:"There is also a group of features in Antarctica called the Young Peaks".

Young Peak (coord|69|45|S|74|31|E|) is a low peak near the Antarctic coast, standing just south of Holder Peak and 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Mount Caroline Mikkelsen. First plotted from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936-37, and with Holder Peak called "Tvillingfjell" (twin mountain) by Norwegian cartographers. This peak was named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for W.
