Galabov Ridge

Galabov Ridge (, ‘Galabov Rid’ \'g&-l&-bov 'rid\) is the mostly ice-covered ridge extending 2.5 km in north-northeast to south-southwest direction, 1.4 km wide and rising to 1100 m just southwest of Boyn Ridge in Havre Mountains, northern Alexander Island in Antarctica. It surmounts Bongrain Ice Piedmont to the northwest and Lennon Glacier to the south. The vicinity was visited on 4 January 1988 by the geological survey team of Christo Pimpirev and Borislav Kamenov (First Bulgarian Antarctic Expedition), and Philip Nell and Peter Marquis (British Antarctic Survey).

The feature was named after Teodor Galabov (1870-1925), head of the Stenographic Office at the National Assembly that developed an early ergonomic keyboard in 1907, adopted as the standard Bulgarian keyboard.
