The Podium (English for Das Podest ) is a high, 1.5 km long, flattened and icy cliff on the Hillary Coast in East Antarctica Victoria Land . At the southern end of the Worcester Range it rises above the icy bay between Cape Teall and Cape Timberlake , into which the Yevtejew Glacier flows.
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it descriptively after its appearance in 1964.
