Mount Dick is a 705-metre (2313 ft) peak on Adams Island, the second-largest of New Zealand's Auckland Island chain. It is the highest point in the Auckland Islands.[1] Mount Dick is on the rim of an extinct volcano, the crater of which now forms Carnley Harbour, which separates Adams Island from the larger Auckland Island.[2]
This mountain was named after Richard “Dickey” Sayers, who moved from Wellington with his family to the Wairarapa in 1859.
