Fox Ridge is a ridge of the McLeod Massif in Mac Robertson Land, East Antarctica . In the eastern part of the Aramis Range in the Prince Charles Mountains, it rises around 8 km west of Beaver Lake .
Surveys and aerial photographs by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions were used to map it. In 1969 the ridge was the location of a station for tellurometer measurements of this research series. The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) named him after J. Fox, who led one of the teams to survey the Prince Charles Mountains.
