Mount Daimler


Mount Daimler is one of the highest points of the rock massif of Trakiya Heights between Russell East Glacier and Victory Glacier, situated 3.87 km east-southeast of Irakli Peak and south of Mount Canicula, Trinity Peninsula. It was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Gottlieb Daimler, a German engineer who developed the light-oil medium speed internal combustion engine which made possible the first commercial production of light mechanical land transport, 1883–85.
