Koll Rock, also known as Blake Island is a large rock located 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) southeast of Oom Island in the west side of Oom Bay, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Kollskjer (knoll rock).[1]
