Johnson Bluff (84°49′S 170°31′E / 84.817°S 170.517°E / -84.817; 170.517) is a conspicuous rock bluff 5 nautical miles (9 km) east-northeast of Ranfurly Point, overlooking the east side of Keltie Glacier at its confluence with Beardmore Glacier, Antarctica. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Dwight L. Johnson, a United States Antarctic Research Program biologist at McMurdo Station in 1963.[1]
