Blizzard Heights
The Blizzard Heights (84°37′S 163°53′E / 84.617°S 163.883°ECoordinates: 84°37′S 163°53′E / 84.617°S 163.883°E) form a high, elongate, flattish area in the Marshall Mountains, standing 2 nautical miles (4 km) northwest of Blizzard Peak, from which they are separated by a broad snow col. The heights are about 2 nautical miles long and rise 550 metres (1,800 ft) above the surrounding snow surface. They were so named by the Ohio State University party to the Queen Alexandra Range (1966–67) because of proximity to Blizzard Peak.[1]
