Hollick-Kenyon Plateau (78°0′S 105°0′W / 78°S 105°WCoordinates: 78°0′S 105°0′W / 78°S 105°W) is a large, relatively featureless snow plateau, 1,200 m to 1,800 m above sea level, located between the northern portion of the Ellsworth Mountains, to the east, and Mount Takahe and Crary Mountains, to the west.
