Beehive Hill


Beehive Hill is an ice-covered hill in Antarctica, which rises to and projects above the surrounding ice sheet. It is situated on the plateau of Graham Land east of the head of Neny Fjord and close north of the head of Wyatt Glacier. It was first surveyed in 1940 by the United States Antarctic Service, on whose field charts the hill is labeled "Sphinx", and re-surveyed in 1946 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey who gave the present name because of the hill's resemblance to a wicker beehive.
