Idiji Ridge is a mountain ridge extending east of Tencho Glacier on the southern flank of Mount Edziza in northwestern British Columbia, Canada. It is bounded on the south by a valley containing an unnamed valley, on the east by Tennaya Creek valley and on the north by cirques extending east of Ice Peak. Idiji Ridge takes its name from Idiji Glacier which lies in a cirque just to the northwest between Idiji Ridge and Ice Peak.[2]

The highest point of Idiji Ridge reaches an elevation of 2,359 metres (7,740 feet) at its westernmost end.[1][2] Idiji Ridge is one of three ridges east of the Big Raven Plateau named by Canadian volcanologist Jack Souther, the other two being Cartoona Ridge and Sorcery Ridge to the south.[2]
