The Chain Nunataks (77°51′S 163°26′E / 77.850°S 163.433°E / -77.850; 163.433) are a linear series of nunataks to the west of Blue Glacier, running west-northwest–east-southeast for 3.5 nautical miles (6 km) between Briggs Hill and Hannon Hill, in Victoria Land. The name is one of a group in the area associated with surveying applied in 1993 by the New Zealand Geographic Board. Named with reference to a surveyor's chain.[1]
