Finger Ridges
The Finger Ridges (79°11′S 157°0′E / 79.183°S 157.000°E) are several mainly ice-free ridges and spurs extending over a distance of about 12 miles (20 km), east-west, in the northwestern part of the Cook Mountains in Antarctica. The individual ridges are 1 to 2 miles (1.6 to 3.2 km) long and project northward from the higher main ridge. They were mapped by the United States Geological Survey from tellurometer surveys and Navy air photos, 1959–63, and named descriptively by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names.[1]
