Soza Icefalls (81°51′00″S 157°48′00″E / 81.85000°S 157.80000°E / -81.85000; 157.80000) is a line of icefalls nearly 200 metres (660 ft) high at the southern margin of Chapman Snowfield in the Churchill Mountains. The icefalls extend southwest for 12 nautical miles (22 km) from Mount Massam, ending near the head of Starshot Glacier. They were named after Ezekiel R. Soza, a U.S. Geological Survey topographic engineer with the Topo North - Topo South survey expedition in these mountains, 1961–62.[1]
