Janke Nunatak

Janke Nunatak (75°53′S 70°27′W / 75.883°S 70.450°W / -75.883; -70.450) is an isolated nunatak, 4 nautical miles (7 km) northeast of Carlson Peak in the western Hauberg Mountains, in Palmer Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1961–67, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for John W.
