Zuhn Bluff

Zuhn Bluff (72°17′S 98°2′W) is a steep north-facing bluff standing about 5 miles (8 km) east-southeast of Mount Bramhall in the Walker Mountains of Thurston Island. Delineated from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump in December 1946. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Arthur A. Zuhn, physicist with the Byrd Antarctic Expedition in 1933-35.
