Administratively this range is part of the Sermersooq Municipality. HistoryThe range was named by Gino Watkins after Captain Percy Lemon (1898–1932) of the Royal Corps of Signals, a member of the 1930-31 British Arctic Air Route Expedition led by Watkins.[2] Although not as high as the Watkins Range to the east or the Lindbergh Range to the northeast, the Lemon Range has become a popular place among climbers because it has some of the steepest rock peaks in Greenland and the quality of the granite is good.[3] A number of the main summits of the range were climbed for the first time by Chris Bonington in the 1990s.[4] GeographyThe Lemon Range is an up to 2,500 m high mountain massif made up of nunataks. It is located among the glaciers east of Courtauld Glacier which has its terminus in the Cortauld Fjord, an arm of Kangerlussuaq Fjord, East Greenland, and west of Frederiksborg Glacier which flows roughly southwards with its terminus in the Watkins Fjord further south. The area of the range is uninhabited.[5][6] Mountains{{div col|colwidth=22em}}
