Redpath Peaks (80°28′S 81°18′W / 80.467°S 81.300°W / -80.467; -81.300) is a cluster of low, snow-covered peaks lying 3 nautical miles (6 km) southeast of Mount Shattuck and the Independence Hills, at the south extremity of the Heritage Range, Ellsworth Mountains. They were named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Bruce B.
