Stark Ridge


Stark Ridge is a narrow ridge that extends from the east part of Hunt Mountain, Churchill Mountains, and trends north for 11 nautical miles to the sharp north-northeast turn in Starshot Glacier. Several summits rise from the ridge which separates Sivjee Glacier and Mansergh Snowfield. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Antony A. Stark, Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, Cambridge, MA; United States Antarctic Program principal investigator for the Antarctic submillimeter telescope and remote observatory at the South Pole, 1991–2002.
