Longhurst Plateau (79°23′S 156°20′E / 79.383°S 156.333°E) is a narrow, snow-covered extension of the Antarctic polar plateau located just west of Mount Longhurst. Rising to 2,200 metres (7,200 ft), it is about 20 nautical miles (37 km) long and 10 nautical miles (19 km) wide, and is bounded on the south by the upper part of Darwin Glacier and on the east by McCleary Glacier. The plateau was traversed by the Darwin Glacier Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition in 1957–58, who named it for nearby Mount Longhurst.

dbo:abstract
  • Das Longhurst-Plateau ist eine verschneite Hochebene in der antarktischen Ross Dependency. Das 32 km lange und bis zu 16 km breite Plateau liegt 2200 m hoch in den Cook Mountains unmittelbar westlich des Mount Longhurst und wird südlich vom oberen Abschnitt des Darwin-Gletschers sowie östlich vom McCleary-Gletscher begrenzt. Teilnehmer der Mannschaft zur Erkundung des Darwin-Gletschers bei der Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1955–1958) überquerte das Plateau zwischen 1957 und 1958. Sie benannten es nach dem gleichnamigen Berg. Dessen Namensgeber ist Cyril Longhurst (1878–1948), Sekretär der britischen Discovery-Expedition (1901–1904). (de)
