Feeney Col

Feeney Col (85°37′S 155°45′W) is a col at the northeast side of Feeney Peak, near the center of the Medina Peaks in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica. Though steep on both sides and high, at 970 metres (3,180 ft), the col provides a good route through the Medina Peaks. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–64. The col was used by members of New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1969–70, who named it in association with Feeney Peak.[1]
