Cupcake Peaks

The Cupcake Peaks (80°42′S 158°36′E) are two rounded peaks, or nunataks, which rise to 1,391 metres (4,564 ft) 3 nautical miles (6 km) southeast of Mount Hamilton in the Churchill Mountains. The allusive name given by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names is suggestive of the appearance of the peaks.[1]
