From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yunak Peak (Bulgarian: връх Юнак, romanized: vrah Yunak, IPA: [ˈvrɤx joˈnak]) is the ice-covered peak of elevation 570 m[1] at the southeast extremity of Gutsal Ridge in Stribog Mountains on Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It has steep and partly ice-free southwest and south slopes, and surmounts Buls Bay to the southeast and Hippocrates Glacier to the west.
The peak is named after the settlement of Yunak in Northeastern Bulgaria.[2]
