Hagey Ridge

Hagey Ridge (coord|74|57|S|134|56|W|) is a high snow-covered ridge, between Bjornert Cliffs and Johnson Glacier, forming the east end of McDonald Heights on the coast of Marie Byrd Land. The ridge was first photographed from aircraft of the U.S. Antarctic Service in December 1940. It was mapped by United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959-66. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Lieutenant Donald W. Hagey, U.S. Navy, Officer-in-Charge at Byrd Station in 1969.
