Zelenika Peak

Zelenika Peak (Bulgarian: връх Зеленика, romanized: vrah Zelenika, IPA: [ˈvrɤɣ zɛlɛˈnikɐ]) is the mostly ice-covered peak of elevation 1100 m in the southeast part of Gutsal Ridge in Stribog Mountains on Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It has steep and partly ice-free southwest slopes, and surmounts Balanstra Glacier to the northeast and Hippocrates Glacier to the southwest.

Location of Brabant Island in the Antarctic Peninsula region.

The peak is named after the settlement of Zelenika in Northern Bulgaria.

gollark: But then I realized "OH APIOFORMS, that is probably vulnerable to weird race conditions".

gollark: So I thought "well, I'll just make it check if the nick is in use when it gets the NICK command".

gollark: However, this does not actually stop multiple people having the same nick, which is no.

gollark: Basically, osmarksunnecessaryIRCserver™ receives connections from clients, for purposes. They are not actually considered registered until they set a nickname. So I currently have it loop and receive messages until it gets `NICK bees` or whatever, at which point it sends the welcome messages, write-locks the global state struct™, writes in the new client connection, and adds the nick to the in-use map.

gollark: Yes, but that would be annoying.
