Miscast Nunataks

Miscast Nunataks (80°30′S 159°9′E / 80.5°S 159.15°E / -80.5; 159.15) is a group of four nunataks which rise to 910 m 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 New Zealand Geological Survey, 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.
