Narrative

Broad snow-covered heights about 3 mi long and 2 mi wide, located just NE of Bonnabeau Dome in the Jones Mountains. Much lower than Bonnabeau Dome, the heights rise considerably above the adjacent ice surface. Mapped and named by the University of Minnesota-Jones Mountains Party, 1960-61. A food cache placed here by the party during a blizzard was never recovered.
