Cape Columbia peak is a mountain more or less by courtesy. Officials here estimate it rises about 1,100 feet above the Arctic Sea, making it about a tall hill. Peary's successful dash for the pole was launched from Cape Columbia in 1909. He made a 40-mile-a-day trek over floes to be the first man to reach the top j of the world.
