Meads Peak is a peak, 1,165 metres (3,820 ft) high, standing 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) off the northwest end of Hudson Ridge in the Neptune Range, Pensacola Mountains, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos from 1956–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Edward "Buzz" C. Meads, a construction driver at Ellsworth Station in the winter of 1958.[1]
