Allan Hills
A region of Victoria Land, Antarctica, to the west of which large numbers
of meteorites have been recovered in recent years, including ALH
84001. The meteorites become concentrated on areas of "blue ice" by
natural movements of the ice sheet, and are easy to find due to the light
background and absence of other rocks.
