The fjomet ( Norwegian for smoked bacon ) is an isolated nunatak in Queen Maud land in East Antarctica . In the Kirwanveggen it rises 13 km east-southeast of the Hallgrenskarvet .
Norwegian cartographers, who also descriptively named the Nunatak, mapped it on the basis of aerial photographs and surveys of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
