The LeMay Range (70°55′S 69°20′W / 70.917°S 69.333°W) is a mountain range 40 nautical miles (70 km) long with peaks rising to 2,000 metres (6,600 ft), extending in a northwest–southeast direction from Snick Pass to the north side of Uranus Glacier in the central portion of Alexander Island, Antarctica. It was first seen from the air by Lincoln Ellsworth on November 23, 1935, and the north and east portions mapped from photos obtained on that flight by W.L.G. Joerg. Later, it was resighted from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947–48, and named by Finn Ronne for General Curtis LeMay, Deputy Chief of Air Staff for Research and Development of the then United States Army Air Forces, which furnished equipment for the expedition. The range was remapped in detail from

  • Die LeMay Range ist ein Gebirgszug von 64 km Länge und bis zu 2000 m Höhe im Zentrum der Alexander-I.-Insel vor der Westküste der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Er erstreckt sich in nordwest-südöstlicher Ausrichtung vom Snick-Pass bis zum Uranus-Gletscher. Erstmals gesichtet hat sie der US-amerikanische Polarforscher Lincoln Ellsworth bei einem Überflug am 23. November 1935. Die dabei entstandenen Fotografien dienten Ellsworths Landsmann, dem Geographen W. L. G. Joerg, für eine Kartierung des nördlichen und östlichen Abschnitts. Erneut gesichtet wurde sie bei einem Überflug im Rahmen der Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (1947–1948) unter der Leitung des US-amerikanischen Polarforschers Finn Ronne. Ronne benannte den Gebirgszug nach General Curtis E. LeMay (1906–1990), damals stellvertretender Leiter der Verbände für Forschung und Entwicklung der United States Army Air Forces, welche die Forschungsreise mit Ausrüstung ausstatteten. Ronnes Luftaufnahmen dienten dem britischen Geographen Derek Searle vom Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey im Jahr 1960 für eine neuerliche Kartierung. (de)
