The Nødtvedt Nunatakker are a group of isolated and up to 2070 m high Nunatakker in the Queen Maud Mountains of the Antarctic Ross Dependency . They rise 11 km east-northeast of Mount Bjaaland in the middle of the Amundsen Glacier .
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names renamed it in 1967 by Jacob Berthelsen Nødtvedt (1857-1918), a crew member of the research ship Fram in Antarctic Expedition (1910-1912) of the Norwegian polar explorer Roald Amundsen .
