Cox Glacier is a small glacier immediately east of Rochray Glacier on Thurston Island, flowing south to Abbot Ice Shelf in Peacock Sound. It was delineated from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 in January 1960, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lieutenant Jerry G. Cox, a helicopter pilot aboard USS Burton Island, who made exploratory flights to Thurston Island in February 1960. Jordan Nunatak stands between Cox and Rochray Glacier.
Jeffries Glacier is a glacier between Lenton Bluff and the Maro Cliffs, flowing northwest for at least 8 nautical miles (15 km) through the Theron Mountains of Antarctica. It was first mapped in 1956–57 by the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition and named for Peter H. Jeffries, a meteorologist with the advance party of the expedition in 1955–56.
Donnachie Cliff is a cliff on Ulu Peninsula, James Ross Island, rising to about 500 metres (1,600 ft) northeast of Back Mesa. Following geological work by the British Antarctic Survey, 1985–86, it was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Thomas Donnachie, a radio operator on Operation Tabarin at Hope Bay, 1944–45.
Patalamon Mesa is a flat-topped mountain rising to about 700 m west of Hidden Lake, in the western portion of James Ross Island. In association with nearby Kerick Col, named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1987 after Patalamon, son of Kerick Booterin, in Rudyard Kipling's story The White Seal in The Jungle Book.
Mondor Glacier is a glacier 3.5 nautical miles (6 km) long flowing southwest from the head of Depot Glacier into Duse Bay, Trinity Peninsula, Antarctica. This glacier and Depot Glacier together fill the depression between Hope Bay and Duse Bay which marks the northern limit of Tabarin Peninsula. The glacier was mapped in 1946 and 1956 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), who named the feature in association with Tabarin Peninsula. "Operation Tabarin" was derived from the "Bal Tabarin" in Paris. In Recueil General des Oeuvres et Fantaisies de Tabarin, Tabarin was the buffoon who attracted the crowd to the booth where Mondor sold his quack medicines.
Flett Buttress is a rock crag rising to 905 metres (2,970 ft) northwest of Mount Haddington on James Ross Island. It provides the highest exposure of volcanic rock on the island. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1987 after William R. Flett, a geologist on Operation Tabarin at Deception Island, 1943–44, and Hope Bay, 1944–45.
Goudier Island is a small island with an appearance of bare, polished rock, lying 0.05 nautical miles (0.1 km) north of Jougla Point in the harbor of Port Lockroy, Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, and named after E. Goudier, chief engineer of the expedition ship Français.
Lost Valley is a valley to the north of Gin Cove and west of Patalamon Mesa on James Ross Island, Antarctica. It was so named following British Antarctic Survey geological work, 1981–83, in association with Hidden Lake.

Tait, FIDS meteorological observer at Hope Bay in 1952 and 1953.
Marck Glacier is a glacier flowing into the southwestern extremity of Cadwalader Inlet on the north side of Thurston Island, Antarctica. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Aviation Machinist's Mate George H. Marck, an aircrewman in the Eastern Group of U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, which obtained aerial photographs of Thurston Island and adjacent coastal areas in the summer of 1946–47.
Luke Glacier is a glacier at least 15 nautical miles (28 km) long, flowing northwest into the head of Leroux Bay on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It is surmounted by Mount Chevreux on the south, Mount Perchot on the southwest and Mount Radotina on the northeast. The glacier was first sighted and roughly surveyed in 1909 by the Fourth French Antarctic Expedition. It was resurveyed in 1935–36 by the British Graham Land Expedition and later named for George Lawson Johnston, 1st Baron Luke of Pavenham, Chairman of Bovril Ltd, who contributed toward the cost of the expedition.
