Fuchs Ice Piedmont (67°10′S 68°40′W / 67.167°S 68.667°W) is an ice piedmont 70 nautical miles (130 km) long, extending in a northeast–southwest direction along the entire west coast of Adelaide Island. It was first mapped in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. It was named by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) for Sir Vivian E. Fuchs, FIDS base leader and geologist at Stonington Island in 1948–49.[1]
Near the southeast end of the piedmont, 3 nmi (5.6 km) west-northwest of the summit of Mount Ditte, Window Buttress rises to about 800 m (2,600 ft) high. It was named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1982, from the window-like structure near the top of the cliff, which is visible only from the southwest.[2]
