Mount Ehrenspeck

Mount Ehrenspeck (84°46′S 175°35′W) is one of the Cathedral Peaks, a group of summits that form a portion of the wall on the east side of Shackleton Glacier, in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica. This peak, which is 2,090 metres (6,860 ft) high, stands 2 nautical miles (4 km) southwest of Mount Kenney. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Helmut Ehrenspeck, a geologist with the Ohio State University Party of 1970–71 which geologically mapped this vicinity.[1]
