词条 | Roaring Cliffs |
释义 | Roaring Cliffs ({{coord|86|23|S|159|24|W|display=inline,title}}) is the high and precipitous rock cliffs just northward of Kutschin Peak on the west side of Nilsen Plateau, Queen Maud Mountains. The name was proposed by William Long, geologist with a United States Antarctic Research Program (USARP) field party that visited the area in the 1963-64 season. The name is descriptive of the sound made by the wind here; standing in the quiet, windless valley below, a roaring noise like an approaching train can be heard high up on the cliffs. {{usgs-gazetteer}}{{RossDependency-geo-stub}} 2 : Cliffs of the Ross Dependency|Amundsen Coast |
