The Clark Knoll is an icy and 454 m high hill on Radford Island in the Marshall Archipelago off the Saunders coast of the West Antarctic Marie Byrd Land . It rises 6 km southwest of Mount Dane .
Aerial photographs of the United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939–1941), measurements of the United States Geological Survey and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1959 to 1965 contributed to the mapping . The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named the hill in 1970 after Elton George Clark (* 1945), caretaker of Byrd Station in 1967.
