Adams Ridge

Adams Ridge (71°0′S 162°23′E) is a sharp-crested rock ridge, 4 miles (6 km) long and rising to 800 metres (2,625 ft), forming a part of the west margin of Bowers Mountains just south of where Sheehan Glacier enters Rennick Glacier. Named by New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee (NZ-APC) in 1983 after Chris Adams, New Zealand geologist who worked in northern Victoria Land, 1981–82. The ridge is situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
