Zeus Ridge

Zeus Ridge is a heavily crevassed, steep-sided, ice-covered ridge, the main part rising over 5,500 feet, extending northwest from Mount Francais between the Achaean and Trojan Ranges in central Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago off the west coast of Graham Land, all of which is within the British Antarctic Territory.

The ridge was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1955 and named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Zeus, the chief god of Greek mythology.
