Vinson Massif Bench Mark Medallion
Celebrate your mountaineering achievements with this exquisite Vinson Massif Bench Mark Medallion. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this 3 ¼ inch diameter medallion is cast in fine pewter, making it a durable and timeless keepsake for any climber, hiker, or adventurer.
The Vinson Massif Bench Mark Medallion features a detailed etching of Vinson Massif’s name and elevation—16,067 feet (4898 meters)—making it a striking tribute to this remarkable peak. With its felt backing and inclusion of a soft fleece pouch, it's designed to be a cherished memento that stays in pristine condition. It arrives beautifully packaged in a clear vinyl box, ready for gifting or display.
Vinson Massif, located in the Sentinel Range of Antarctica, holds the distinction of being the highest peak on the continent and is the final ascent of the renowned "Seven Summits" challenge. First sighted by U.S. Navy aircraft in 1957, the mountain was named in honor of U.S. Congressman Carl G. Vinson, a staunch advocate for exploration. Notably, Vinson Massif is unique among Antarctic peaks—it is a solid rock formation rather than a volcano, with no underlying magma. Furthermore, it remains one of the most remote and challenging climbs, due to its extreme cold and isolation. These elements contribute to its allure as a coveted summit among adventurers and peak baggers.
