Dikstra Buttresses

The Dikstra Buttresses (-69.8°N, -69.88333°W) are a group of summits rising to about 1,500 m on the western side of the Douglas Range, northern Alexander Island, Antarctica. Surveyed by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), 1975–76, they were named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1980 after Barry James Dikstra, a BAS geophysicist at Adelaide Island and Rothera Station, 1974–77.
