Webb Peak (77°39′S 162°23′E / 77.650°S 162.383°E / -77.650; 162.383) is a peak on Roa Ridge, 1.5 mi (2.4 km) northwest of Matterhorn, in the Asgard Range of Victoria Land, Antarctica. The peak rises to 1,750 m (5,740 ft) between Matterhorn Glacier and Lacroix Glacier. It was named by the New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB) in 1998 after Eric N. Webb, a New Zealand magnetician with the Australasian Antarctic Expedition (AAE), 1911–14, led by Douglas Mawson.[1]
