Gadsden Peaks
The Gadsden Peaks are a line of northeast-trending peaks on a ridge, long. They rise to over and stand 5 nautical miles west-southwest of Lange Peak of the Lyttelton Range, in the Admiralty Mountains of Victoria Land. Antarctica. They were mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy aerial photographs, 1960–63, and were named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Michael Gadsden, a radioscience researcher at McMurdo Station, Hut Point Peninsula, Ross Island, 1965–66 and 1967–68. These peaks lie situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
