534:. A round frozen pond, 100 metres (330 ft) in diameter, lying in a morainal valley east of the north end of Forlidas Ridge. The only pond in the northern Pensacola Mountains, it is of much interest to biologists. The pond was discovered and briefly investigated in December 1957 by a US-IGY party from Ellsworth Station. The name is in association with Forlidas Ridge and was suggested by Arthur B. Ford of USGS following geological work in the area, 1978-79.

363:. An ice-free spur lying south of Clemons Spur and Forlidas Ridge. Named by US-ACAN, at the suggestion of USGS party leader Arthur B. Ford, after Private First Class Joseph W. Preslik, a member of the United States Army Aviation Detachment with the USGS Pensacola Mountains survey, 1965-66.
572:. A rock ridge trending north–south and marking the east extent of Davis Valley. Named by US-ACAN in 1979 after CWO Stanley J. Wujek, United States Army, helicopter pilot of the Army Aviation Detachment which supported the USGS Pensacola Mountains survey, 1965-66.

Davis Valley and other, adjacent ice-free valleys, forms one of the most southerly ‘dry valley’ systems on the continent and has exceptional scientific value for the interpretation of past glacial events and climate in this part of
Antarctica. With
