# Index Point

Index Point (73°21′S 167°55′E﻿ / ﻿73.350°S 167.917°E﻿ / -73.350; 167.917) is a low, ice-covered point that forms the eastern extremity of the Mountaineer Range on the coast of Victoria Land, Antarctica. The feature lies at the terminus of Mariner Glacier, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) west of Emerging Island. It was so named in 1966 by the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee because the shape is suggestive of an index finger.
