Location: 54° 16' 15" S 36° 51' 59" W
rising to 1940m in N Allardyce Range, S of the head of Neumayer Glacier, was surveyed by the South Georgia Survey and named after local usage, 'spaaman' being roughly translated as 'weather prophet' or 'fortune-teller'; the emergence of this mountain from its usual heavy cloud cover was said to be a sign of good weather.
