Well done.

Jan Mayen Island is a 55 km (34 miles) long (southwest-northeast) and 373 km² (144 mi²) in area Arctic volcanic island in the Arctic Ocean, partly covered by glaciers (an area of 114.2 km² around the Beerenberg). It has two parts: larger northeast Nord-Jan and smaller Sør-Jan, linked by an isthmus 2.5 km (1.6 mi) wide. It lies 600 km (about 400 mi) north of Iceland, 500 km (about 300 mi) east of central Greenland and 1,000 km (about 600 mi) west of the North Cape, Norway. The island is mountainous, the highest summit being the Beerenberg volcano in the north. The isthmus is the location of the two largest lakes of the island, Sørlaguna (South Lagoon), and Nordlaguna (North Lagoon). A third lake is called Ullerenglaguna (Ullereng Lagoon). Jan Mayen was formed by the Jan Mayen hotspot. It is part of the Kingdom of Norway.

In the 2008 game Tomb Raider: Underworld Lara Croft visits Jan Mayen Island in search of Thor's Hammer.

Bugger, yes, it is Durham isn't it?

Well done, mate.

**rubbajohnny** · 14-01-2009, 03:18 PM

Of course all of us as new seekers we owe it all to Judith Durham

**Happyman** · 14-01-2009, 03:24 PM

'Ang on a min - I will sort one out - what a coincidence - the lady visitor I mentioned earlier lives in bloody Durham ( or very close by !!!

)

As an aside, am I right in thinking that my pic of a rock on Mars was not appreciated?
Adjudication required. Where in the world = Earth only?

**Mr Pot** · 14-01-2009, 03:33 PM

Rock on Mars is fine - The world is huge; you can post star formations and galaxies if you wanted

**Happyman** · 14-01-2009, 03:35 PM

Shit ! Cant make it bigger !

**Happyman** · 14-01-2009, 03:36 PM

**Mr Pot** · 14-01-2009, 03:36 PM
