Remapped by SovAE, 1960-61, and named Lednik Parizhskoy Kommuny (Paris Commune glacier).Шаблон:Sfn
Pieck Range
Шаблон:Coord. A short mountain range surmounted by Zwiesel Mountain, located at the east side of Humboldt Graben in the Petermann Ranges. Discovered and plotted from air photos by GerAE, 1938-39.

Replotted from air photos and surveys by NorAE, 1956-60, and named Sandbotnen (the sand cirque).Шаблон:Sfn
Bremotet Moraine
Шаблон:Coord. A small morainal area on the northwest side of Zwiesel Mountain, at the point where the glacial flow of the Humboldt Graben meets that of Parizhskaya Kommuna Glacier. First plotted from air photos by GerAE, 1938-39. Replotted from air photos and surveys by NorAE, 1956-60, and named Bremotet (the glacier meeting).Шаблон:Sfn
Skeidshornet Peak
Шаблон:Coord. A peak, Шаблон:Convert high, standing Шаблон:Convert west-southwest of Mount Valikhanov in the Pieck Range of the Petermann Ranges, in Queen Maud Land.

Mount Skeidskneet
Шаблон:Coord. A mountain, Шаблон:Convert high, surmounting the east side of the head of Humboldt Graben at the southwest extremity of the Petermann Ranges. Discovered and photographed by the GerAE, 1938-39. Mapped by Norway from air photos and surveys by NorAE, 1956-60, and named Skeidskneet.Шаблон:Sfn
Vestbanen Moraine
Шаблон:Coord. A medial moraine in Humboldt Graben, originating near Zwiesel Mountain and trending north in string-like fashion for Шаблон:Convert along the west flank of the Petermann Ranges. First plotted from air photos by GerAE, 1938-39. Remapped by NorAE, 1956-60, and named Vestbanen (the west path). The feature is similar to Austbanen Moraine which parallels it Шаблон:Convert eastward.Шаблон:Sfn
