Roaring Cliffs (86°23′S 159°24′W / 86.383°S 159.400°W) is the high and precipitous rock cliffs just northward of Kutschin Peak on the west side of Nilsen Plateau, Queen Maud Mountains. The name was proposed by William Long, geologist with a United States Antarctic Research Program (USARP) field party that visited the area in the 1963–64 season. The name is descriptive of the sound made by the wind here; standing in the quiet, windless valley below, a roaring noise like an approaching train can be heard high up on the cliffs. * v * t * e

  • Die Roaring Cliffs (englisch für Brausende Klippen) sind hohe und markante Felsenkliffs in der antarktischen Ross Dependency. Im Königin-Maud-Gebirge ragen sie unmittelbar nördlich des Kutschin Peak an der Westseite des Nilsen-Plateaus auf. William Long, Geologe einer Mannschaft, die zwischen 1963 und 1964 im Rahmen des United States Antarctic Research Program in diesem Gebiet tätig war, schlug die Benennung vor. Namensgebend sind die Geräusche, die bei entsprechendem Wind von den Kliffs ausgehen, im windgeschützten Tal unterhalb der Kliffs zu hören sind und an einen heranfahrenden Zug erinnern. (de)

  • Le Roaring Cliffs (in lingua inglese: Scogliere rombanti), sono delle alte e ripide scogliere rocciose antartiche, situate appena a nord del Kutschin Peak sul fianco occidentale del Nilsen Plateau, nei Monti della Regina Maud, in Antartide. La denominazione è stata proposta da William Long, geologo che faceva parte del gruppo dell'United States Antarctic Research Program (USARP) che aveva esplorato quest'area nel 1963-64. La denominazione fa riferimento al rumore prodotto dal vento in quest'area; nella sottostante e quieta valle priva di vento, il soffio sulle cime provoca una specie di rombo che ricorda il rumore di un treno in arrivo.
