Oyayubi-one ( transcription from Japanese 親 指 尾根 'back of the thumb' ; Norwegian Eyskenshuken 'Eyskenshaken' ) is a mountain ridge in Queen Maud Land in East Antarctica . In Sør Rondane , it is the north-easternmost of five mountain ridges that extend northward from the Brattnipane like the fingers of a hand.
