Kråsen (Norwegian for Kaumagen ) is a 25 km long crevasse field on the Princess Martha Coast in Queen Maud Land in East Antarctica . It lies in the lower section of the Jutulstraumen .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named the crevasse field descriptively, mapped it on the basis of surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960) from 1958 to 1959.
