Haskill Nunatak

Haskill Nunatak (83°24′S 51°45′W) is an elongate nunatak, 1,710 metres (5,610 ft) high, standing 2.5 nautical miles (5 km) west of Dyrdal Peak in the southern Forrestal Range of the Pensacola Mountains, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Robert E.
