Sløret ( Norwegian for veil ) are a small group of rocky outcrops in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . They protrude 8 km south of the ends along the ice slope on the Kirwanveggen on.
Norwegian cartographers, who also named them, mapped them using surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952).
