A version of The Land Unknown

The first one was described in a post on Nov 14, 2018 in the SCIENCE now, add FICTION later forum under the title Beneath Antarctica's Ice, Evidence of Lost Continents!. (<— link)
I had a ball coming up with ideas for a hidden valley in Antarctica, located beneath the ice. To illustrate what I had in mind I wipedup the picture below with Paint.net in, using a nice picture of New Zealand, with the sky replaced by an aerial photo of the North Pole . . . turned upside down
Naturally the bright sunlight is all wrong, but you get the idea.
The thread includes links to articles I found which state that a hidden valley under the Antarctoc ice might be possible.
