Una's Tits are two towers of basalt, each topped by a cap of ice, guarding the entrance to the Lemaire Channel on the Antarctic Peninsula. With the highest summit at 747m, they are officially named "Una's Tits" and are identified as such on navigation charts. The peaks appear on a British Antarctic Territory stamp although they are not identified as such.
Una was a woman living in Stanley, Falkland Islands who was working for what is now the British Antarctic Survey.[1]
