'''Twin Crater''' ({{coor dm|77|50|S|166|41|E|}}) is a crater with twin nested cones that rises behind [[McMurdo Station]] and 0.5 nautical miles (0.9 km) west of [[Crater Hill]] on [[Hut Point Peninsula]], [[Ross Island]]. This crater was named [[Middle Crater]] by [[Frank Debenham]] of the [[British Antarctic Expedition]], 1910-13, apparently for its location in relation to [[First Crater]] and Crater Hill, but the name has fallen into disuse. Twin Crater, alluding to the nested cones in the crater, was applied as early as 1971 and the name has become established because of consistent use in current maps and reports.

'''Two Step Cliffs''' ({{coor dm|71|54|S|68|13|W|}}) is the eastern face of a flat-topped sedimentary [[mountain]], 680 m, immediately east of [[Mars Glacier]] on the east coast of [[Alexander Island]].

Roughly surveyed from the ground in 1936 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) and in 1940-41 by the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS), who used the names "[[Two Step Mountains]]" and "[[Table Mountain]]" for this feature. The name Two Step Cliffs derives from the name used by USAS, and was suggested by [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) following surveys in 1949 as being particularly descriptive of this feature.

'''Two Summit Island''' ({{coor dm|62|15|S|58|57|W|}}) is a small [[island]] marked by two prominent summits, lying at the east entrance to [[Fildes Strait]] in the [[South Shetland Islands]]. It was named [[Two Hummock Island]] by DI personnel following their survey in 1935, but this name has been rejected because of probable confusion with Two Hummock Island in the north entrance to [[Gerlache Strait]]. Two [[Summit Island]], equally descriptive of the feature, was recommended by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1954.
