Te Puna Roimata Peak (77°27′S 167°34′E) is a peak (c.890 m) located 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km) west of Terra Nova Glacier and 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) south of Lewis Bay on the lower northeast slope of Mount Erebus, Ross Island. On November 28, 1979, a New Zealand DC10 aircraft on a scenic flight from Auckland crashed near this peak claiming the lives of 237 passengers from eight countries and a crew of 20. In 1987, a stainless steel memorial cross was erected west of the peak. Te Puna Roimata Peak (meaning spring of tears) was named by the New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB) in 2000.
