Grainger Valley
Grainger Valley is a valley long and up to wide separating Manning Massif and McLeod Massif in the eastern part of the Aramis Range, in the Prince Charles Mountains of Antarctica. It was photographed from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1956, and was first crossed on foot on the 1st February 1969 by geologist David John Grainger and surveyor Jeff Fox during the ANARE Prince Charles Mountains survey. It was later named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for Grainger. He also took part in the 1970 ANARE Prince Charles Mountains survey.
Also named is the 'Grainger Member' of the Bainmedart Coal Measures of Permian age that crops out on the steeply sloping western margin of Beaver Lake between the mouths of Grainger Valley and McKinnon Glacier.
