释义 | Turnpike Bluff ({{coord|80|44|S|30|4|W|display=inline,title}}) is a conspicuous rock formation in Antarctica. First mapped in 1957 by the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition, and so named because it marks entry to a crevassed area of Recovery Glacier through which the Expedition's vehicles had difficulty in passing on their journey from Shackleton Base to the South Pole in 1957, it lies five nautical miles (9 km) southwest of Mount Homard, at the southwest extremity of the Shackleton Range. {{usgs-gazetteer}}{{Portalbar|Antarctica|Geography}}{{Antarctica}}{{CoatsLand-geo-stub}} 1 : Cliffs of Coats Land |
