Above sea level, the highest point is 16,050' (4,892 m), the height of Vinson Massif. Below sea level, the NASA IceBridge project estimated that the bed of the West Antarctic ice sheet is a mile and a half or 7,920 feet deep. It is unknown whether or not this is the deepest point of the Antarctic continent, since its discovery is ongoing.
