Coombes Ridge

Coombes Ridge (69°8′S 157°5′E / 69.133°S 157.083°E / -69.133; 157.083) is a rocky coastal ridge 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) west of Magga Peak. The ridge, which runs roughly north-south, forms the east extremity of Lauritzen Bay. This area was photographed from the air by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump in 1947. The ridge was mapped on February 20, 1959 by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) (Magga Dan), led by Phillip Law. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for Bruce Coombes, airport engineer, Australian Dept. of Civil Aviation, who accompanied the expedition to investigate potential airfield sites at Wilkes Station and elsewhere.
