Surveyed and given this descriptive name by the NZGSAE, 1958-59, because of the bomb-like (pyroplastic) geological formations surrounding the summit of this peak. The rocks showered out by volcanic eruption left the appearance of a bomb-pocked region. The rocks, which are fist-sized and have become wind-eroded are particularly in evidence here.
