Mount Thor is well-named


Mount Thor on Baffin Island is indeed a mountain of the gods, with a big, high, sheer rock wall.


Height club: Incredible pictures show the mighty Mount Thor, which features the world's greatest vertical drop - of 4,100ft (that's three Empire State Buildings end to end)





A more distant view of Mount Thor, aka Thor Peak.



Mount Thor is just under ten miles from Mount Asgard, which combined its impressive vertical face with its flat-topped peak to be the sight for the one of the Bond movie series most memorable opening sequences, in The Spy Who Loved Me.
