Harris Peak (77°34′S 162°42′E) is a peak rising to 1,750 metres (5,740 ft) 1.4 nautical miles (2.6 km) south of Mount Weyant in the Asgard Range of Victoria Land, Antarctica. It is located between Mount Hall and Ball Peak, with which this naming is associated. It was named by the New Zealand Geographic Board in 1998 after A.M. "Andy" Harris (who died on Mount Everest with Rob Hall), a guide and New Zealand Antarctic Research Program field leader, 1987–92, including two trips to Marie Byrd Land.
