Roberts Pike
Roberts Pike (80°36′S 158°45′E) is a peak rising to 1,630 m, 5 nautical miles (9 km) southeast of Mount Tuatara in the Churchill Mountains. The culmination of several ridgelines, the summit commands a view of the drainage areas of Judith Glacier, Entrikin Glacier, and Couzens Bay. It was named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) after John "J.R." Roberts, a New Zealand mountaineer and field guide in 12 Antarctic seasons with United States Antarctic Program (USAP), 1987–88 to 2000–01, the last season in Churchill Mountains including work at this peak.
