The Guthridge Nunataks (71°48′S 64°33′W) are a scattered group of sharp peaked nunataks and small mountains, about 22 nautical miles (40 km) long and 6 nautical miles (10 km) wide, midway between the Rathbone Hills and the Blanchard Nunataks in the Gutenko Mountains of central Palmer Land, Antarctica. They were mapped by the United States Geological Survey in 1974, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) after Guy G. Guthridge, Director of the Polar Information Service, Division of Polar Programs, National Science Foundation; Editor, US-ACAN, from 1989 (Chairman from 1994).
