Dauphin Pond (77°34′S 160°43′E) is a freshwater frozen pond in the Labyrinth of Wright Valley, McMurdo Dry Valleys. The pond is near the southwest extremity of Healy Trough, 0.2 nautical miles (0.4 km) east of the Wright Upper Glacier terminus. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (2004) after a United States Coast Guard Dauphin helicopter (HH-65A) that landed on the pond January 20, 2004, in the course of sampling the pond.[1]
