Nusha Hill

Nusha Hill (Bulgarian: Нушин хълм, ‘Nushin Halm’ \'nu-shin 'h&lm\) is the rocky hill rising to 251 m in southern Hurd Peninsula on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It has precipitous east, south and west slopes, and is linked to Doc Peak (301 m) to the north by a col of elevation 220 m. Nusha Hill surmounts a rock glacier to the west and southwest,^[1] False Bay to the east and its sub-embayment Glaciar Rocoso Cove to the south-southwest. The adjacent area, subject to geological and glaciological field work, is accessible by sea or by an overland route running from Hurd Ice Cap along the South Bay coast facing Sally Rocks and via a saddle of elevation 122 m situated 800 m west by south of the hill.

The feature is named after Nusha Ivanova (b. 1986), participant in the 2002/03 and subsequent Bulgarian Antarctic campaigns (the first Bulgarian high school student involved).
