Description (see definition): Conspicuous peak, 450 mi, standing 5.5 mi NE of Strath Point on the SE coast of Brabant Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. A point on the coast just S of this peak was first charted and the name Lagrange applied by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition (BelgAE) under Gerlache, 1897-99. On one of the photos published by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition (BelgAE) the name is applied to the S tip of the island. To avoid confusion the generic term has been altered and the name applied to the peak described here.
