Information

The first white man to discover this hill was a South Australian surveyor by the name of Theodore Earnest Day. The next important Explorer to visit them was Dr Cecil Madigan in his 1939 crossing of the Simpson Desert. Madigan named the most prominent peaks in this area after members of his expedition party.
