Half Black Peak

Half Black Peak (71°47′S 163°40′E) is a peak 2 nautical miles (4 km) northeast of Mount Edixon, rising to over 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) in the southeastern part of the Lanterman Range, in the Bowers Mountains of Victoria Land, Antarctica. The peak was descriptively named in 1983 by the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee on the proposal of M.G. Laird, because of the proximity of All Black Peak and from the color of this peak, half black rock and half snow. This topographical feature lies situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
