Mummy Pond
Mummy Pond (77°40′S 162°39′E) is a pond between Suess and Lacroix Glaciers in Taylor Valley, Victoria Land. So named by T.L. Pewe, U.S. geologist who visited the area in December 1957, because of the mummified seals found around the pond.

gollark: Yes, that would be an unhappy fish.
gollark: Oh, you mean the tailless fish.
