James Ross Island is a large island off the southeast side and near the northeastern extremity of the Antarctic Peninsula, from which it is separated by Prince Gustav Channel. Rising to 1,630 metres (5,350 ft), it is irregularly shaped and extends 64 km in a north–south direction. It was charted in October 1903 by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Otto Nordenskiöld, who named it for Sir James Clark Ross, the leader of a British expedition to this area in 1842 that discovered and roughly charted a number of points along the eastern side of the island. The style, "James" Ross Island is used to avoid confusion with the more widely known Ross Island in McMurdo Sound.
Archer Glacier is a glacier flowing northwest into the head of Bolson Cove, Flandres Bay, on the west coast of Graham Land. It was first charted by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Adrien de Gerlache, 1897–99, and named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1960 for Frederick Scott Archer, an English architect who in 1849 invented the wet collodion process of photography, the first practical process on glass.
Mount Balch is an east-west trending mountain with numerous sharp peaks, the highest 1,105 m, between Mount Peary and Mount Mill on Kiev Peninsula, west coast of Graham Land. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition of 1908–10 under Charcot and named by him for Edwin Swift Balch, an American author and authority on Antarctic exploration.
Barnett Glacier is a large glacier in the Anare Mountains that flows east along the south side of Tapsell Foreland into Smith Inlet, northern Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–63, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Donald C. Barnett, USGS topographic engineer, a member of USGS Topo East and West, 1962–63, in which the expedition extended geodetic control from the area of Cape Hallett to the Wilson Hills and from the foot of Beardmore Glacier through the Horlick Mountains. The glacier lies on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
Browning Pass is an ice-covered pass, 10 nautical miles (19 km) long, lying between the main mass of Deep Freeze Range and the Northern Foothills in Victoria Land. The pass facilitates movement between the lower ends of Priestley Glacier and Campbell Glacier. The feature was first mapped as a part of Campbell Glacier by the Northern Party of the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13 (BrAE). It was remapped by the Southern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1962–63, and named for Frank V. Browning, a member of the BrAE Northern Party, for whom nearby Mount Browning is also named.
Cadman Glacier is a glacier, 1.5 nautical miles (3 km) wide at its mouth and about 7 nautical miles (13 km) long, flowing northwestward into the head of the southern arm of Beascochea Bay south of Plas Point on the west side of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Ferin Head is a headland 4 nautical miles (7 km) north of the entrance to Holtedahl Bay, in the northwest of Velingrad Peninsula on the Graham Coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, who from a distant position in Pendleton Strait charted this feature as an island, which Jean-Baptiste Charcot named for A. Ferin, French Vice-consul at Ponta Delgada in the Azores. The British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under John Rymill, 1934–37, charted this coast and correlated their work with that of Charcot. Ferin Head, as here applied, is in accord with the BGLE interpretation.
Gaudin Point is the eastern entrance point of Lauzanne Cove, Flandres Bay, on the Danco Coast of Antarctica. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. In association with the names of pioneers of photography in this area, the point was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (1977) after Marc Antoine Gaudin, a French photographer who took the first instantaneous photographs of moving objects in 1841.
Gerry Glacier is a glacier on Edward VII Peninsula, Antarctica, flowing north between Reeves Peninsula and the Howard Heights to the head of Sulzberger Bay. Features in this area were photographed from the air and mapped by the Byrd Antarctic Expeditions, 1928–30 and 1933–35. This glacier was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for U.S. Senator Peter G. Gerry of Rhode Island, a long-time friend of the Byrd family and a contributor to the 1933–35 expedition.
Gibraltar Peak is a peak in Antarctica.
Lobel Island is an island nearly 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) long, laying 2 nautical miles (4 km) southwest of Brown Island in the Wauwermans Islands of the Wilhelm Archipelago, Antarctica. It was charted by the Third French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, 1903–05, and named for Loicq de Lobel.
Lister Glacier is a glacier on the east side of the Royal Society Range in Antarctica, draining northeast from a large cirque immediately north of Mount Lister. It derives its name from Mount Lister, and was surveyed in 1957 by the New Zealand Blue Glacier Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition, 1956–58.
Ménier Island is an island, the largest in a small island group lying in the mouth of Flandres Bay, 4 nautical miles (7 km) northeast of Cape Renard, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The island group was discovered by the Third French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, who gave them the name "Iles Ménier." The name Ménier is now applied to the largest of these islands.
Huitfeldt Point is a point southeast of Vorweg Point on the southwest side of Barilari Bay, on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was charted by the British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill, 1934–37, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1959 for Fritz R. Huitfeldt, a Norwegian pioneer ski exponent, the author of one of the earliest skiing manuals, and the designer of the Huitfeldt ski binding, for long the standard binding.
Hyatt Cove is a cove at the west side of Sonia Point in Flandres Bay, on the northeast coast of Kiev Peninsula on Danco Coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was discovered and roughly mapped by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99. It was mapped in greater detail in the 1950s by Argentine, British and Chilean expeditions, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1986 after Raymond H. Hyatt of the Cartographic Section at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, 1949–85, and head of section from 1970, with responsibility for preparing UK-APC maps.
Sayce Glacier is a glacier flowing into Flandres Bay immediately north of Pelletan Point, on the west coast of Graham Land. Charted by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, 1897-99. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1960 for B.J. Sayce (1839–1895), English photographer who, with W.B. Bolton, invented the collodion emulsion process of dry plate photography, which displaced wet collodion in 1864.
Sleipnir Glacier is a glacier 10 nautical miles (18 km) long, flowing into the west side of Cabinet Inlet between Balder and Spur Points, on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. Vologes Ridge is situated in the central portion of the glacier.
Lauzanne Cove is a cove 2 nautical miles (4 km) wide, lying immediately south of the Guyou Islands on the south side of Flandres Bay, along the northeast coast of Kiev Peninsula, Graham Land, Antarctica. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, who named it for Stephane Lauzanne, the chief editor of the French newspaper Le Matin, 1900–15.
