Conard Peak (72°22′S 167°26′E / 72.367°S 167.433°E / -72.367; 167.433) is a peak, 2,230 metres (7,320 ft) high, along the north side of Hearfield Glacier, about 5 nautical miles (9 km) north of Aldridge Peak, in the Cartographers Range, Victory Mountains, in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–64, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Ralph W. Conard, a member of the aircraft ground handling crew with U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 at Williams Field, Ross Island, during Operation Deep Freeze 1968.[1]
