Dumb Hood Question: What exactly is Queens Chair?

I know this is a dumb question but I can't figure it out for the life of me, What exactly is Queens Chair on Hood?

 

I've climbed Leuthold before and understand the approximate location of it but is it a specific feature? Or just a term for a general area? I've scoured trip reports, maps, and photos but still can't figure it out for myself so it's time to publicly ask the dumb question. A pic would be appreciated if possible!

Queen's chair is simply the more-or-less flat area up there.

 

Basically there is a flat area where all of the routes between sunshine counter clockwise to Leuthold top out. If you do a rising rightward traverse to the ridge high on Leuthold you will bypass the QC.
