Mikkelsen Bay is a bay, 15 nautical miles wide at its mouth and indenting 10 nautical miles, entered between Bertrand Ice Piedmont and Cape Berteaux along the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica.
The LeMay Range is a mountain range 40 nautical miles (70 km) long with peaks rising to 2,000 metres (6,600 ft), extending in a northwest–southeast direction from Snick Pass to the north side of Uranus Glacier in the central portion of Alexander Island, Antarctica. It was first seen from the air by Lincoln Ellsworth on November 23, 1935, and the north and east portions mapped from photos obtained on that flight by W.L.G. Joerg. Later, it was resighted from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947–48, and named by Finn Ronne for General Curtis LeMay, Deputy Chief of Air Staff for Research and Development of the then United States Army Air Forces, which furnished equipment for the expedition. The range was remapped in detail from RARE photos by D. Searle of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960.
Arrowsmith Peninsula is a cape about 40 miles (64 km) long on the west coast of Graham Land, west of Forel Glacier, Sharp Glacier and Lallemand Fjord, and northwest of Bourgeois Fjord, with Hanusse Bay lying to the northwest. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1955-58 and named for Edwin Porter Arrowsmith, Governor of the Falkland Islands.
Hanusse Bay is a broad, V-shaped bay, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The bay is 37 kilometres (20 nmi) long and trends generally north–south. It is bordered by Cape Mascart on Anvers Island, and Shmidt Point on Arrowsmith Peninsula, Loubet Coast. At its north entrance, Isacke Passage separates it from Liard Island. It is bounded to the south by a line from Landauer Point, the north point of Hansen Island and Bagnold Point on Arrowsmith Peninsula.
Jabet Peak is a peak in the Comer Range, 545 metres (1,790 ft) high, which marks the southwestern end of the serrate ridge 1 mile (1.6 km) northeast of Port Lockroy, Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It was probably first sighted in 1898 by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, and was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, who named it for Jacques Jabet, boatswain of the expedition ship Français.
Enigma Peak is a peak, 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) high, surmounting Fournier Ridge in the Desko Mountains, on Rothschild Island in Antarctica. It was probably seen from a distance by F. Bellingshausen in 1821, Jean-Baptiste Charcot in 1909, and the British Graham Land Expedition in 1936. It was observed and photographed from the air by the U.S. Antarctic Service, 1939–41, and was mapped as the prominent northwestern peak of the island. It was mapped in greater detail from air photos taken by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition, 1947–48, by D. Searle of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960, and from U.S. Landsat imagery of February 1975. It was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee because of difficulty in identifying the peak during the map compilation.
Mount Barre is a mountain with an ice-covered, pyramidal peak, 2,195 m, standing 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) northeast of Mount Gaudry in the south part of Adelaide Island. Discovered and surveyed in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Charcot. Resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) and named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Michel Barre, leader of the French Antarctic Expedition to the Adelie Coast, 1951–52.
Mount Bouvier is a massive, mainly ice-covered mountain, 2,250 metres (7,380 ft) high, immediately north of the head of Stonehouse Bay in the east part of Adelaide Island. It was discovered and roughly positioned by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for Louis Bouvier, a prominent French naturalist. It was re-surveyed by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, and by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1948–50.
Mount Calais is a massive mountain, 2,360 metres (7,700 ft) high, at the northwest side of Schokalsky Bay in the northeast part of Alexander Island, Antarctica. It was first roughly surveyed in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, who named it for the French city of Calais. The mountain was resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey. Mount Calais is the eighth-highest point of Alexander Island while Mount Stephenson remains the highest of all the peaks.
Gourdon Peninsula is a snow-covered peninsula 6 nautical miles (11 km) long, forming the southeast side of Lapeyrere Bay on the northeast coast of Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. The northeast coast of Anvers Island was roughly surveyed by the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot in 1905 and the name "Pointe Gourdon," for Vice-Admiral Gourdon of the French Navy, was given to a point between Lapeyrere Bay and Fournier Bay. The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1956 altered the name to Gourdon Peninsula and applied it to the peninsula described, which almost certainly is the feature Charcot had in mind when he gave the original name.
Mount Edgell is a mountain, 1,675 metres (5,500 ft) high, rising eastward of Cape Jeremy, the east side of the north entrance to George VI Sound, on the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition of 1908–10 under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. Charcot saw it first from a great distance and thinking it to be an island, he named it "Ile Gordon Bennett" for James Gordon Bennett, Jr. of the New York Herald, who gave financial aid to the expedition. The British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill, surveying this area in 1936–37 and finding no island, applied the name Mount Edgell to the feature now recognized as Charcot's "Ile Gordon Bennett." The name Mount Edgell, after Sir John Augustine Edgell, Hydrographer of the Navy from 1932–45, has since become established through international usage.
Mount Gaudry is a mountain, 2,560 metres (8,400 ft) high, rising close southwest of Mount Barre and 5 nautical miles (9 km) north-northwest of Mount Liotard in the southern part of Adelaide Island, Antarctica. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, who named it after Albert Gaudry, a prominent French paleontologist.
Hansen Island is an island 6 nautical miles (11 km) long and 3 nautical miles (6 km) wide, lying immediately north of The Gullet at the head of Hanusse Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was first surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under John Rymill, who used the provisional name "North Island" for this feature. The island was resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, and was renamed in 1954 by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Leganger H. Hansen, manager at Messrs. Christian Salvesen's whaling station at Leith Harbor, South Georgia, 1916–37, who gave great assistance to the BGLE, 1934–37.
The Haslam Heights are a line of peaks trending north-northeast–south-southwest, rising to about 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) to the west of Vallot Glacier and Nye Glacier in Arrowsmith Peninsula, Graham Land, Antarctica. They were probably first seen by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10 under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, which roughly charted the area in 1909. They were roughly mapped by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1948, and named in 1985 by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) after Rear Admiral Sir David W. Haslam, Hydrographer of the Navy, 1975–85.
Hunt Peak is a triangular rock peak, 610 metres (2,000 ft) high, marking the north side of the entrance to Stonehouse Bay on the east coast of Adelaide Island, Antarctica. It was discovered and first roughly surveyed in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. It was resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), who named the point marked by this peak for Sergeant Kenneth D. Hunt, a mechanic for the expedition's Noorduyn Norseman airplane in 1950. Further survey in 1957–58 by the FIDS showed no definable point in the vicinity and the name was transferred to the peak.
Mount Mangin is a mountain, 2,040 metres (6,700 ft) high, standing 5 nautical miles (9 km) northeast of Mount Barre on Adelaide Island, Antarctica. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for the noted French botanist Louis A. Mangin.
Savoia Peak is a peak, 1,415 m, at the northeast end of Sierra DuFief, a mountain range in the southwest part of Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. Discovered by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, in 1898, and scaled by members of the French Antarctic Expedition under Charcot, 1903–05. Named by Charcot for Luigi di Savoia, Duke of the Abruzzi.
The Lewis Peaks are two prominent peaks, 1,065 metres (3,500 ft) high, standing 3 nautical miles (6 km) east of Day Island and surmounting the western part of Arrowsmith Peninsula on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. They were first roughly surveyed in 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. They were resurveyed in 1948 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey who named then for Flight Lieutenant John Lewis, pilot of the Auster airplane which was used from the RRS John Biscoe for reconnaissance of ice conditions in Marguerite Bay in February 1950.
Lind Glacier is a glacier flowing west from Alencar Peak into the southern part of Collins Bay, on the west coast of Kyiv Peninsula in Graham Land, Antarctica. It was first charted by the Fourth French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, 1908–10, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1959 for James Lind, the Scottish "founder of modern naval hygiene," who was the first to publish a convincing account of experimental work establishing the dietary cause and cure of scurvy, in 1755.
