Baseline Nunataks

The Baseline Nunataks (70°46′S 67°1′E / 70.767°S 67.017°E / -70.767; 67.017Coordinates: 70°46′S 67°1′E / 70.767°S 67.017°E / -70.767; 67.017) are a small group of nunataks rising above the plateau ice 5 nautical miles (9 km) south of Mount McKenzie, along the south side of the Aramis Range, Prince Charles Mountains in Antarctica. They were visited in January 1957 by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions southern party of 1956–57 led by W.G. Bewsher. This was the eastern end of a photo baseline, with Mount Hollingshead as the western end, hence the name.^[1]
