Guardrail Ridge (77°32′S 168°50′E / 77.533°S 168.833°E / -77.533; 168.833) is a ridge 2 nautical miles (4 km) long located 2 nautical miles west-southwest of The Tooth in the Kyle Hills of Ross Island, Antarctica. The ridge rises to 2,200 metres (7,200 ft) at Sherve Peak. The name, given by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in 2000, alludes to the position of the ridge along the southern margin of Lofty Promenade.[1]
