rising to 50m on Galindez Island, Argentine Islands, was surveyed by BGLE in 1935. The hill is frequently used for ice observations from nearby Faraday and, as it can be approached from any direction, encircling tracks are usually seen from the summit; was named after the Woozle, an imaginary animal in A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh (London, 1926), which leaves tracks in the snow, in reality made by the tracker walking in circles (APC, 1959a, p.12; BA chart 3213, 12.viii.1960; DOS 210 Argentine Islands sheet, 1964).
