Names that other countries have for this feature:
A group of four nunataks which rise to c.790m on the south side of Byrd Glacier. The outcrops lie between Mount Tadpole and Mount Madison in the Churchill Mountains.
The feature was geologically mapped as Dick Formation, a clastic, sandstone unit, by the New Zealand Geological Survey (NZGS), 1960-61. The name arose following remapping by United States Antarctic Program (USAP) geologist Edmund Stump, 2000-01, and the determination that the entire outcrop is Shackleton Limestone.
