It lies between the Bowers Mountains on the west and the Concord Mountains and Anare Mountains on the east, flowing to Ob' Bay on the coast and forming the Lillie Glacier Tongue.
Castle Rock is a bold rock crag, 415 metres (1,360 ft) high, standing 3 miles (5 km) northeast of Hut Point on the central ridge of Hut Point Peninsula, Ross Island. It was discovered by the British National Antarctic Expedition, 1901–04, under Robert Falcon Scott, who so named it because of its shape.
Leslie Hill is a hill lying northward of Bowles Ridge and south of the Vidin Heights in the eastern part of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Situated 5.33 km north of Mount Bowles, 1.43 km east-northeast of the summit of Gleaner Heights and 3.15 km south-southwest of Radnevo Peak.
Borggarden Valley is a broad ice-filled valley about 10 nautical miles (20 km) long, lying between Borg Mountain and Veten Mountain in the northwest part of Borg Massif, Queen Maud Land. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from surveys and from air photos by the Norwegian–British–Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–52) and named "Borggarden".
Clifford Peak is a peak, 1,160 metres (3,800 ft) high, at the northeast end of the Osterrieth Range, Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. It was probably first seen by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache. The peak was named by members of HMS Snipe following an Antarctic cruise in January 1948, for Sir G. Miles Clifford.
Cove Rock is a low offshore rock 3 nautical miles (6 km) west of North Foreland, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands. It was charted by Discovery Investigations in 1937 and called descriptively Cone Rock; the spelling Cove Rock, likely through error in transcription, appeared in a Hydrographic Office publication in 1942, and became established.
Mount Deardorff is a prominent peak, 2,380 metres (7,800 ft) high, surmounting the massive ridge dividing the heads of Moffett Glacier and Steagall Glacier in the Queen Maud Mountains. It was first mapped from ground surveys and air photos by the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, 1928–30, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for J. Evan Deardorff who made cosmic ray studies at McMurdo Station in 1964.
Gurling Glacier is a glacier draining between Krebs Ridge and Leininger Peak into the southwest corner of Smith Inlet, on the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Paul William Gurling, a British Antarctic Survey surveyor who worked in the general vicinity of this feature. Paul was a BAS surveyor, Stonington Island.
Mount Grieg is a snow-covered mountain, rising to about 800 metres (2,600 ft), with a rock-exposed west face, overlooking the southeast part of Brahms Inlet and is situated on the base of the Derocher Peninsula, on the north side of the Beethoven Peninsula in the southwest part of Alexander Island, Antarctica. A number of mountains in this vicinity first appear on maps by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947–48. This mountain, apparently one of these, was mapped from RARE air photos by D. Searle of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960, and was remapped by the United States Geological Survey, 1988. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Edvard Grieg, the Norwegian composer.
Fender Buttress is a rock buttress rising to more than 1,600 metres (5,250 ft), projecting from the south side of Herbert Plateau into the head of Drygalski Glacier, Graham Land. It was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (1960–61), and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Guillaume Fender of Buenos Aires, the inventor of an early type of track-laying vehicle.
Fitton Rock is a flat-topped rock lying southeast of Cape Alexandra, off the south end of Adelaide Island. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1963 for Gordon F. Fitton, a British Antarctic Survey general assistant at Adelaide Station, 1961–62, and a member of the first party to winter on Adelaide Island.
Fleurus Island is an island lying 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) south of Delaite Island in Wilhelmina Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. it was shown on an Argentine government chart of 1950, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1956 after the British ship Fleurus, which visited the area in 1928.
Franca Glacier named after Dr. Fernando E. Franca, is a glacier in Antarctica, flowing northeast into the head of Solberg Inlet, Bowman Coast, to the south of Houser Peak. The glacier was photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service, 1940, and the U.S. Navy, 1966. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, 1946–48, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in 1977 after Dr. Fernando E. Franca, Medical Officer and Station Manager, Palmer Station, 1974.
Mount Mooney is a ridge-shaped mountain, 2,850 metres (9,350 ft) high, standing just north of the La Gorce Mountains, where it rises above the middle of Robison Glacier, in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica. It was discovered in December 1934 by the Byrd Antarctic Expedition geological party under Quin Blackburn, and named by Rear Admiral Byrd for James E. Mooney, who assisted this and later Byrd expeditions. From 1959 to 1965, Mooney served as Deputy United States Antarctic Projects Officer.
Leininger Peak is a peak, 1,135 metres (3,720 ft) high, standing at the north side of the base of Eielson Peninsula, on the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. The peak was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) under Finn Ronne, 1947–48, and charted in 1947 by a joint sledge party consisting of members of the RARE and the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey. It was named by Ronne for Commander Joseph A. Leininger, U.S. Navy Reserve, who devised the plans for the loading of cargo and the alterations on the expedition ship.
Bizone Rock is the rock off Snow Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica extending 120 m in southeast-northwest direction and 100 m wide. It is the largest and southeasternmost in a group of several rocks extending 1.84 km in southeast-northwest direction and 1 km in southwest-northeast direction.
Wordie Seamount is a seamount located in Bransfield Strait, Antarctica. The feature is named after James Wordie, geologist on Ernest Shackleton's 1914 expedition to Antarctica.
Bekas Rock is the 140 m long in southwest-northeast direction and 60 m wide rock lying west of Rugged Island on the west side of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.
