Blizzard Peak (84°38′S 164°8′E) is, at 3,375 metres (11,070 ft), the highest peak in the Marshall Mountains, Queen Alexandra Range, standing 4 nautical miles (7 km) northwest of Mount Marshall. It was so named by the Northern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1961–62) because a blizzard prevented them from reaching it for several days.
