Ushlinova Peak
Mountain in Antarctica From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ushlinova Peak (Bulgarian: връх Ушлинова, romanized: vrah Ushlinova, IPA: [ˈvrɤx oʃˈlinovɐ]) is the sharp ice-covered peak of elevation 2130 m[1] in the west foothills of Avery Plateau on Loubet Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. It surmounts Widdowson Glacier to the west and a tributary to that glacier to the northeast.
The peak is named after Donka Ushlinova (1880–1937), a participant in the Bulgarian liberation movement in Macedonia, much decorated for her bravery in the 1912–1918 wars of national unification.
Ushlinova Peak is located at 66°48′10″S 65°37′44″W, which is 13.66 km southeast of Rubner Peak, 14 km south-southeast of Sokol Point on Darbel Bay, 9.63 km southwest of the nearest of Zilva Peaks, and 12.1 km north of Hutchison Hill. British mapping in 1976.
