Jaeger Hills

Jaeger Hills (coord|75|30|S|65|40|W|) is a group of hills and nunataks, rising to about 1,000 m and running NE-SW for 24 miles (38 km) between Matthews Glacier and McCaw Ridge on the Orville Coast, Ellsworth Land. The feature was mapped by United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and U.S. Navy aerial photographs, 1961-67. It was visited in 1977-78 by a USGS geological party, led by Peter D. Rowley, and named after Commander James W. Jaeger, U.S. Navy, Commanding Officer, Antarctic Development Squadron Six, 1977-78, and command pilot of the LC-130 aircraft in support of the USGS party.
