Quaver Nunatak

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quaver Nunatak (71°0′S, 70°17′W) is a small nunatak rising to about 250 m, the northernmost exposure of the Walton Mountains, Alexander Island. The site was so named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) (1977) after the musical term, reflecting the small size of the feature and in association with the names of composers in this area.
