Mount Huxley (Tasmania) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mount Huxley (Tasmania)
Mount Huxley is a mountain located on the West Coast Range in the West Coast region of Tasmania, Australia. With an elevation of above sea level, the mountain was named by Charles Gould in 1863 in honour of Professor Thomas Henry Huxley. One of the smaller peaks in the West Coast Range, the mountain comprises a large outcrop and rock face on its southern side above the King River Gorge just west of the Crotty Dam - parts of which are visible along the river gorge from the West Coast Wilderness Railway where it commences following the King River.〔 ==Goldfield== Between April and June 1894 there was a goldfield situated on the slopes, and a syndicate that was discovered to have salted the mine site, with three alleged proponents, Isaac Bertram Barker, William Price and Antonio Briscoe, charged with fraud. On 1 July the Crown Solicitor told a magistrate that while the mine had undoubtedly been salted, there was insufficient evidence, and the charges were withdrawn.〔
