Fulgham Ridge is a narrow and ice-free ridge in the Antarctic Ross Dependency . It flanks the Bowin Glacier in the Queen Maud Mountains on its southeast side.
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named the formation in 1966 after boatswain's mate Donald Ray Fulgham (1940-2000), who had participated in Operation Deep Freeze in 1964.
