Staeffler Ridge is a long ridge west of Hanson Ridge, separating Victoria Lower Glacier from Greenwood Valley in Victoria Land. Named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in 1964 for George R. Staeffler, topographic engineer with the U.S. Geological Survey, who worked in the McMurdo Sound area during 1960-61.
