Yes. The definition of a landmark is a feature which is recognisable, and often able to be seen from a distance. Explorers of the late 1800s certainly used it to help pinpoint their location, which is another function of a landmark.

It is prominent for the way it rises above the surrounding plain in an otherwise relatively featureless landscape.
