Dunikowski Ridge is a ridge trending northwest–southeast and rising to about 315 metres (1,030 ft) northeast of Legru Bay, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands. It was named following geological work by the Polish Antarctic Expedition, 1977–79, after Xawery Dunikowski, the Polish sculptor.
Pawson Peak is a solitary peak of irregular conical shape, rising to 250 m west-northwest of Sphinx Hill, Admiralty Bay, King George Island.

Fourcade of the Instituto Antartico Argentino, who made detailed geological investigations of Potter Cove and Fildes Peninsula in several seasons, 1957–58 to 1960–61.
Gibbs Glacier is a glacier, 15 nautical miles (28 km) long, flowing southeast into the northern part of Mercator Ice Piedmont on the east side of the Antarctic Peninsula. This feature together with Neny Glacier, which flows northwest, occupy a transverse depression between Mercator Ice Piedmont and Neny Fjord on the west side of the Antarctic Peninsula. Gibbs Glacier was photographed from the air and first mapped by the United States Antarctic Service, 1939–41, and the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition, 1947–48. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Peter M. Gibbs of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, a surveyor at Horseshoe Island, 1957, and leader at Stonington Island, 1958, who was responsible for the first ground survey of the glacier.
Goetel Glacier is a glacier flowing south between Ullmann Spur and the Precious Peaks into Martel Inlet, Admiralty Bay, on King George Island in the South Shetland Islands. It was named by the Polish Antarctic Expedition, 1980, after Professor Walery Goetel (1889–1972), a Polish geologist and conservationist.
Melville Glacier is a glacier, 12 nautical miles (22 km) long, between Mapple Glacier and Pequod Glacier on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It flows eastwards between Stevrek Ridge and Parlichev Ridge in the Aristotle Mountains, to enter Domlyan Bay in the Weddell Sea. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1947 and 1955, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Herman Melville, the author of Moby-Dick. Several other features in the area are named after characters in the story.
Henryk Glacier is a glacier on Arctowski Peninsula, on the Danco Coast of Antarctica, with a noteworthy cirque at the head; it flows southwest between Wild Spur and Hubl Peak into Errera Channel. The glacier was named in association with the peninsula after Henryk Arctowski, by the Polish Antarctic Expedition, in about 1993.
Klekowski Crag is a rock crag rising to about 400 metres (1,300 ft) on the south side of Lange Glacier, Admiralty Bay, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands. It was named by the Polish Antarctic Expedition in 1979 after Professor Romuald Klekowski, Director of the Institute of Ecology, Polish Academy of Sciences, which sponsored Arctowski Station on King George Island.
Savage Glacier is a glacier at the east end of Thurston Island, lying south of Tierney Peninsula and flowing east to Seraph Bay. The glacier was discovered on helicopter flights from the USS Glacier and Burton Island by personnel of the U.S. Navy Bellingshausen Sea Expedition in February 1960. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named the glacier for Lieutenant John Savage, U.S. Navy, dental officer aboard the Glacier, who assisted in establishing geodetic control points in the area.
Lange Glacier is a glacier flowing into the west side of Admiralty Bay close south of Admiralen Peak, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It was charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1960 for Alexander Lange (1860–1922), a Norwegian pioneer of modern steam whaling in the South Shetland Islands in 1905–6, and commander of the Admiralen.
