Kyle, named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) (2000) after Raymond L. Chuan who, as a scientist with the Brunswick Corporation, Costa Mesa, CA, undertook many airborne surveys of volcanic aerosols from Mount Erebus and also did sampling at the crater rim, 1983–84 and 1986–87; investigator (with Julie Palais) on a project which examined aerosols between Mount Erebus and the South Pole.

A prominent peak 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) east of Giggenbach Ridge in northeast Ross Island.

Manahan, who worked eight seasons in Antarctica from 1983; United States Antarctic Project (USAP) prinicipal investigator in study of early stages (embryos larvae) of marine animals; chair, Polar Research Board, National Academy of Sciences, 2000.

Name by New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB) (2000) after Major James R. M. Barker, officer in command at Scott Base, 1970–71; a NZAP manager, 1970-86.

The feature lies 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) south-southeast of Tent Peak and is reported to resemble a fossilized shark's tooth.

A somewhat isolated rock peak, about 600 metres (2,000 ft) high, that rises above the ice mantle southeast of Mount Terror.
