Skytrain Ice Rise

Skytrain Ice Rise is a large, flattish, peninsula-like ice rise of about 50 miles extent, extending from the vicinity of Meyer Hills in the Heritage Range eastward into the Ronne [Ice Shelf] of Antarctica.
It was mapped by United States Geological Survey from surveys and USN air photos, 1961–66, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after the LC-47 Douglas Skytrain airplane, used extensively in the supply and placement of U.S. field personnel in Antarctica beginning with USN Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and continuing into the late 1960s.
