Name ID: 137881 Place ID: 19516

The peak rising 2052 meters is in Kyle Hills just west of Tekapo Ridge on the eastern slopes of Mount McIntosh, eastern Ross Island. The feature is named by US-ACAN BGN for John Haywood who spent much time in the Antarctic Program devoting attention to improving and streamlining processes and communication. He designed an ordering spreadsheet in 1995 which is now the ordering template used by RPSC divisions. He has designed and worked with Raytheon and NSF engineers in the development of the Standardized USAP Field Facility design package that details each component that goes into a deep field camp. The design and development have led to the standardization of deep field camps. He spent many seasons in various support positions, later as Carpenter Shop and then Construction Coordinator for one season. In 2006 he became Manager of Construction.
