The Reynolds nunatak is a nunatak in Marie Byrd Land in West Antarctica . In the Queen Maud Mountains, it rises 19 km north of Mount Herr on the southern flank of the Leverett Glacier .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own surveys and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1960 to 1963. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1967 after Clifford E. Reynolds, an electrician on the Byrd station in the Antarctic winter 1957.
