Lowry Massif


Lowry Massif is a compact block of ridgelines without a prominent culminating summit, rising to about on the south side of Byrd Glacier, Antarctica. The unit is long and stands 3 nautical miles south-southwest of Mount Tuatara. A section of Shackleton Limestone was measured here by United States Antarctic Program geologist Edmund Stump in November 21, 2000. The massif is named after geologist Patrick H. Lowry, a member of Stump's Arizona State University field parties, 1977–78 and 1978–79, the latter season being in the Byrd Glacier area.
