Xenia Hill


Xenia Hill is the rocky hill rising to 96 m in the northeast extremity of Half Moon Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It surmounts McFarlane Strait to the north and east, and Menguante Cove to the south-southeast. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers operating from nearby Yankee Harbour.

The feature’s name appeared in a 2000 publication following Argentine ornithological research on the island, and in the 2005 and 2009 Bulgarian maps of Livingston Island.

The hill located at 62°35′05.1″S 59°54′54.8″W / 62.584750°S 59.915222°W / -62.584750; -59.915222 which is 690 m northeast of Gabriel Hill, 7.03 km southeast of Edinburgh Hill, Livingston Island, 7.88 km south-southwest of Triangle Point, Greenwich Island and 10.46 km west-southwest of Ephraim Bluff, Greenwich Island (Bulgarian mapping in 2005 and 2009).
