The Bondknausane ( Norwegian ) are partly icy and snow-covered rocky outcrops in Queen Maud's East Antarctic Land . In the mountains of Sør Rondane they loom southwest of Bond Peaks .
Scientists at the Norwegian Polar Institute named them in 1988 based on the name of the Bond Peaks. It is named after Charles Alonzo Bond (1904–1989), commander of the Western Group in the US Operation Highjump (1946–1947).
