The Meyers Nunatak is a Nunatak in the West Antarctic Ellsworthland . At the southeast end of the Hudson Mountains, it rises 16 km east-southeast of Mount Manthe .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own measurements and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1960 to 1966. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1968 after the geomagnetic Herbert Meyers, who was part of the United States Antarctic Research Program from 1960 until 1961 worked on the Byrd station .
