Description: St. Boris Peak from Mount Friesland in Tangra Mountains on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, with ‘The Synagogue’, a rock-cored ice form rising in the saddle between the two peaks dominating the foreground. The local ice relief is subject to changes, causing variations in the features’ elevation. This picture shows ‘The Synagogue’ as seen entirely below the horizon from Mount Friesland and therefore lower than the latter in the 2004/05 season. The GPS measured elevation of Mount Friesland was 1700 m in December 2003, 1702 m in December 2004, and 1693 m in December 2016. Viewpoint location: Mount Friesland, the summit of Tangra Mountains on Livingston Island, in the South Shetland Islands Viewpoint elevation: 1702 meters (ground) + 1.7 meters (camera) Camera: HP PhotoSmart C945 (V01.54)
