The Småhausane (Norwegian for small ledges ) are a group of small nunataks in Queen Maud Land in East Antarctica . On the north side of the Sør Rondane mountains, they loom between Fidjelandfjellet and Nordtoppen .
Norwegian cartographers, who also used the descriptive naming, mapped the group in 1946 using aerial photographs of the Lars Christensen Expedition in 1936/37 and in 1957 using the same aerial photographs of the US Operation Highjump (1946–1947).
