Crary Knoll

Crary Knoll (78°16′S 161°37′E / 78.267°S 161.617°E / -78.267; 161.617) is a symmetrical ice-covered knoll rising to 1,520 m, 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) south-southeast of Holmes Block in the Skelton Glacier area, Hillary Coast. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in 1994. The toponym provides a historical footnote that U.S. scientist Albert P. Crary (Crary Ice Rise, q.v.) led geophysical traverses past this feature to the Polar Plateau en route to the South Pole and other destinations.
