Convoy Range
Convoy Range (76°47′S 160°45′E) is a broad mountain range in Antarctica. Much of the range has a nearly flat plateau-like summit, extending south from the Fry Saddle and ending at Mackay Glacier. The range has steep cliffs on its east side, but it slopes gently into the Cambridge Glacier on the western side.
The New Zealand Northern Survey Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58) worked in this area in 1957. The party named the range for the main convoy into McMurdo Sound in the 1956–57 season, with the names of the various vessels being used for features in the range.

gollark: Well, you could try randomly deleting the files the programs own.
gollark: So remove them, using the normal thing to remove programs, which is in control panel or something.
gollark: If you don't have malware but just undesirable programs, remove them from control panel or whatever.
gollark: If you have malware, you should just entirely wipe the computer and reinstall from scratch.
