Place ID: 10844
A small peak (1,500 m) along the W side of Kosco Glacier, 7 mi SW of McGinnis Peak, in the Queen Maud Mountains. The descriptive name was proposed by Edmund Stump of the USARP Ohio State University party which geologically mapped the peak on Dec. 3, 1970. Composed entirely of white crystalline marble, the Peak lacks contrast with the snow that skirts it to a high level. |
