Gibbon Nunatak (85°31′S 127°36′W) is an isolated nunatak on the north side of the Wisconsin Range, Antarctica, standing 8 nautical miles (15 km) north of Lentz Buttress on the west side of Davisville Glacier. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–64, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Thomas L. Gibbon, a construction driver in the Byrd Station winter party, 1959.
