Artemis Ridge (77°27′S 162°15′E / 77.450°S 162.250°E / -77.450; 162.250) is a ridge, 1 mile (1.6 km) long, rising to 1,700 metres (5,600 ft) between Thomas Valley and the southwest part of Clark Glacier in the Olympus Range of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica. In keeping with the names from Greek mythology grouped in this area, it was named by the New Zealand Geographic Board (1998) after Artemis, a goddess associated with the moon.[1]
