Earth:O-J-I
Mount OJI, or O-J-I, is located in Baxter State Park in the U.S. State of Maine with an elevation of 3419 ft. (1042 m.) The mountain is named after a rock face which once formed the letters "O-J-I", but was mostly destroyed by The Great New England Hurricane of 1938. This is the last in a series of peaks connected to Mount Katahdin and proceeding west from the mountain. On its back side[clarification needed] is a large unvisited spruce flat called the Klondike. The elevation of the "Klondike" is 2900 feet and it is shaped like a triangle with OJI at its southwestern vertex. Prior to the 1938 hurricane, the shapes of the landslides on OJI spelt out OJI. They have become more nondescript since then.
