Dee Nunatak (74°58′S 136°31′W / 74.967°S 136.517°W / -74.967; -136.517) is a rock nunatak which appears to be within the flow of Garfield Glacier, in the west part of McDonald Heights, Marie Byrd Land. The feature lies 1 nautical mile (2 km) west of Rhodes Icefall. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lieutenant Thomas H. Dee, U.S. Navy, Medical Officer at Byrd Station, 1970.[1]
