Allen Knoll

Allen Knoll (63°40′S 58°35′W) is a steep-sided snow dome rising from a flat snowfield 2 nautical miles (4 km) northwest of the head of Russell West Glacier, Trinity Peninsula, Antarctica. It was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) (1960–61) and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Keith Allen, a FIDS radio operator at Hope Bay in 1959 and 1960.[1]
