Name

The mountain is named after the Mørkdalen valley. The last element is the finite form of tuve or tue which means "tussock". The valley name Mørkdalen is a compound of mørk which means "dark" and the finite form of dal which means "dale" or "valley".

gollark: Apparently this tends to improve with scale. I'm not sure if the details of Delphi are available anywhere.
