COMPOSITE GAZETTEER OF ANTARCTICA

A broad, mainly ice-covered ridge, about 70 mi long, surmounted by scattered, low peaks. It rises between Schytt and Jutulstraumen Glaciers and extends from Borg Massif northward to Fimbul Ice Shelf in Queen Maud Land. The area was first photographed from aircraft of the GerAE (1938-39) and peaks in this vicinity were roughly plotted. The Stein Nunataks and Witte Peaks, named by the GerAE, appear to coincide with the NE part of the Ahlmann Ridge. The feature was mapped in detail from surveys and air photos by the NBSAE (1949-52) and air photos by the Norwegian expedition (1958-59). Named for Hans Wilhelmsson Ahlmann, chairman of the Swedish committee for the NBSAE.

Mostly ice- and snowcapped, large and broad ridge, with spread nunataks in the N part and mountains in the S part. N of Borgmassivet, E-most in Maudheimvidda. After Hans Jacob Konrad Wilhelmsson Ahlmann, b. 1889, Swedish geographer, professor at Stockholms Högskola. Chairman of the Swedish kommittee for NBSAE.

A large bay extending from Robinson Ridge to Browning Peninsula, Windmill Islands. The area was photographed by USN Operation Highjump (1946/47), ANARE (1956) and the Soviet Antarctic Expedition (1956). Named after R.L. Penney, biologist at Wilkes in 1959 and 1960.
