Mount Aldaz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mount Aldaz () is a projecting-type mountain (2,520 m) that barely protrudes from the ice-covered Usas Escarpment, 22 miles (35 km) east-southeast of Mount Galla, in Marie Byrd Land. The mountain is mostly ice covered, but has notable rock outcropping along its northern spur. Surveyed by United States Geological Survey (USGS) on the Executive Committee Range Traverse of 1959. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Luis Aldaz, Meteorologist and Scientific Leader at Byrd Station, 1960.
