Alleruusakasiit

Nature
Alleruusakasiit, formerly spelled Agdlerussakasit, is a mountain in southern Greenland in Kujalleq municipality. Rising 1,743.7 metres, it is a largely unglaciated rocky summit about 2.8 kilometres west of Torsukattak Fjord, across the valley south of Angiartarfik. It is especially known for its enormous eastern cliff, the Thumbnail, a sheer rock face that has made it prominent in big wall climbing. The mountain also stands out because, unlike many nearby high peaks, it is not closely bound up with ice.
