Hayduta Buttress

Location of Fallières Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula.

Hayduta Buttress (Bulgarian: рид Хайдута, ‘Rid Hayduta’ \'rid hay-'du-ta\) is the rounded, mostly ice-covered buttress 13.5 km long in E-W direction and 7.5 km wide, rising to 1287 m[1] on the west side of Hemimont Plateau on Fallières Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. The feature has steep and partly ice-free south, west and north slopes, and surmounts Perutz Glacier to the south, Blind Bay to the west and Barnes Glacier to the north.

The buttress is named after Hayduta Peak in Rila Mountain, Bulgaria.
