Description (see definition): A prominent cliff along George VI Sound, located just N of the terminus of Eros Glacier on the E side of Alexander Island. The feature forms a bluff 550 m high at its northern end, but becomes a sharp ridge toward the south. The feature was mapped from trimetrogon air photography taken by Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947-48, and from survey by Falklands Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), 1948-50. So named by UK Antarctic Place-names Committee (UK-APC) because it lies on George VI Sound.
