Sheppard Nunatak


Sheppard Nunatak is a conical nunatak 60 m high which stands close north of Sheppard Point, the north side of the entrance to Hope Bay, at the northeast end of Antarctic Peninsula. This area was first explored by a party of the Swedish Antarctic Expedition 1901–04. The nunatak was charted in 1945 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, and named by them for its association with Sheppard Point.
