Kuberry Rocks

The Kuberry Rocks (75°17′S 138°31′W) are a small area of exposed rock at the north end of the Coulter Heights. The rocks are 6 nautical miles (11 km) northwest of Matikonis Peak, near the coast of Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica. They were mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and were named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Richard W. Kuberry, a geomagnetist/seismologist at Byrd Station, 1969–70.[1]
