An ice free peak, 1346m, the highest in the Campbell Hills, Nimrod Glacier, located 5 km north-west of Mount Christchurch. Named after Walter Seelig who passed away on 27 April 2005. Walter spent most of his career working in Antarctica while employed by the NSF and with the NZ Programs. He was based at Christchurch, NZ, for many years, where he served as the US Antarctic Program's representative in New Zealand. The nearby Christchurch & Lyttelton named features are appropriate associations, as Walter had a big influence on NZ US relations.
