Ridge to the south east of Dragon Peak, between Tatsu Glacier and Smaug Glacier, Finlandia Foothills, Alexander Island.
The name is a Sino-Japanese word for dragon, following a theme of names for dragons in this area. The area had not been visited previously and the first field party (January 2018) were reminded of old maps and charts where uncharted areas were decorated with dragons and other mythical beasts.
