Mountainview Ridge

Mountainview Ridge

Mountainview Ridge (78°55′S 83°42′W / 78.917°S 83.7°W / -78.917; -83.7) is a gentle ice-covered ridge which forms the southeast extremity of the Sentinel Range in the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. It was so named by the University of Minnesota Geological Party in 1963-64, because an excellent view of the high peaks of the Sentinel Range was obtained from the ridge.
