Harrison Peak (72°24′S 166°39′E / 72.400°S 166.650°E / -72.400; 166.650) is a peak 2,830 metres (9,280 ft) high along the north side of Wood Glacier, about 5 nautical miles (9 km) north of Mount McDonald, in the Victory Mountains of Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–64, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for William R. Harrison, a biologist at McMurdo Station, 1967–68.[1]
