The Cathedral Peaks (84°44′S 175°40′W) form a rugged mountain mass surmounted by several conspicuous peaks, located north of Lubbock Ridge and extending for about 8 nautical miles (15 km) along the eastern margin of Shackleton Glacier. From the glacier the peaks resemble the spires and turrets of a cathedral. They were named by F. Alton Wade, who worked in this area as leader of the Texas Tech Shackleton Glacier Party, 1962–63.[1]
