Description
(see definition):
A nunatak about 2 mi S of Mount Tritoppen in the David Range of the Framnes Mountains. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition (1936-37) and called Steinen (the stone). It was renamed by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) because the feature marked the turning point in the route taken by the 1958 Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) seismic party in order to bypass dangerous terrain to the southwest.
