Mount Cargill

Mount Cargill, known in Māori as Kapukataumahaka, is a 676-metre-high (2,218 ft) volcanic outcrop which dominates the skyline of northern Dunedin, New Zealand. It is situated some 15 kilometres (9 miles) north of the city centre. The peak is named for Captain William Cargill, an early leader of the Province of Otago. It is one of the youngest parts of the massive extinct Dunedin shield volcano and was formed some 10 million years ago. To the northeast of Mount Cargill's peak are several smaller peaks including Mount Zion, Mount Holmes and (most notably) Buttar's Peak.
