Burrage Dome (75°33′S 161°5′E) is a mainly ice-covered dome, 840 metres (2,760 ft) high, standing 4 nautical miles (7 km) northeast of the summit of Mount Joyce, in the Prince Albert Mountains, Victoria Land. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–62, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Roy E. Burrage, Jr., a construction mechanic with the South Pole Station winter party, 1966.
