Flint Ridge (77°31′S 163°2′E / 77.517°S 163.033°E / -77.517; 163.033 (Flint Ridge)) is a north-south trending ridge with a summit elevation of 995 metres (3,264 ft) in the Asgard Range of Victoria Land, Antarctica. Flint Ridge was named by US-ACAN for Lawrence A. Flint, manager of the USARP Berg Field Center at McMurdo Station in 1972. A standard USGS survey tablet stamped "Flint ET 1971-72" was fixed in a rock slab atop this ridge by the USGS Electronic Traverse, 1971-72.[1]
