Hadley Peak
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hadley Peak () is a peak (2,660 m) surmounting the escarpment at the north edge of Ford Massif in the Thiel Mountains. The name was proposed by Peter Bermel and Arthur Ford, co-leaders of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Thiel Mountains party which surveyed these mountains in 1960-61. Named for Jarvis B. Hadley of USCS, then Chief of the Branch of Regional Geology in the Eastern U.S. and administrator of USGS geology programs in Antarctica.
