Ivory Pinnacles
Appearance
The Ivory Pinnacles (63°50′S 59°9′W / 63.833°S 59.150°W) are a pair of ice-covered peaks rising to 1,120 metres (3,670 ft) on the west side of Pettus Glacier, 9 miles (14 km) southeast of Cape Kjellman, in northern Graham Land, Antarctica. The feature was charted in 1948 by members of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey who applied the descriptive name.[1] The Ivory Pinnacles are separated from nearby Poynter Hill by the 700-metre pass Poynter Col.[2] Other nearby peaks include Mount Bradley, Mount Reece, Mount Roberts, Tinsel Dome, Webster Peaks, and Wimple Dome.[3]
