Dwyer Escarpment


The Dwyer Escarpment is an ice-covered escarpment that overlooks the north coast of Victoria Land between Cooper Spur and Cape North, Antarctica. The escarpment lies situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
This feature was first mapped by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in 1962, which gave the name after L.J. Dwyer, a former Director of the Australian Commonwealth Bureau of Meteorology, and a member of the ANARE Executive Planning Committee.
