The Baldwin Rocks are a group of rock outcrops about 5 nautical miles (10 km) northwest of Watson Bluff on the north side of David Island. They were charted by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911–14, under Mawson, and named by him for Joseph M. Baldwin of the Melbourne Observatory.
Borradaile Island is one of the Balleny Islands. It was the site of the first landing south of the Antarctic Circle, and features the "remarkable pinnacle" called Beale Pinnacle, near Cape Beale on its south-eastern coast, and Cape Scoresby on its north-western coast.
Old Mans Head is a dark headland marking the south side of the entrance to Wüst Inlet, on the east coast of Palmer Land. It was discovered and photographed from the air in December 1940 by members of the United States Antarctic Service (USAS). During 1947 the headland was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), who in conjunction with the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) charted it from the ground. This descriptive name was given by the FIDS.
Discovery Bluff is a conspicuous headland forming the west side of the entrance to Avalanche Bay in Granite Harbour, Victoria Land. It was discovered by the British National Antarctic Expedition (1901) under Robert Falcon Scott, who referred to the feature as "Rendezvous Bluff". It was renamed for the ship Discovery by Scott's second expedition, the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13.
The Freyberg Mountains are a group of mountains in Victoria Land, Antarctica, bounded by Rennick Glacier, Bowers Mountains, Black Glacier, and Evans Neve. Named for New Zealand's most famous General, Lord Bernard Freyberg, by the Northern Party of New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE), 1963-64. This mountain group includes the Alamein Range. These topographical features all lie situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
Eisner Peak is a peak rising to 1,525 metres (5,003 ft) at the west side of the terminus of Sumner Glacier, 2 nautical miles (4 km) south-southeast of Mount Blunt, on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. The peak was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition in 1947 and the U.S. Navy in 1966, and it was surveyed from the ground by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey of 1960–61. It was named in 1977 by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Glen Eisner, a United States Antarctic Research Program biologist at Palmer Station in 1975.
Meridian Glacier is a broad glacier, 9 nautical miles (17 km) long, which flows south along the west side of Godfrey Upland and joins Clarke Glacier between Behaim Peak and Elton Hill, in southern Graham Land, Antarctica. Finn Ronne and Carl R. Eklund of the United States Antarctic Service travelled along this glacier in January 1941. It was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition in November 1947, and was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in December 1958. The glacier was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee because the glacier flows from north to south along the meridian.
Milestone Bluff is a rock-faced, snow-backed bluff rising to about 830 metres (2,720 ft) just west-southwest of Mount Liotard, in the south part of Adelaide Island, Antarctica. it was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1964 because the bluff is an important landmark on the inland route north of Adelaide station.
Cape Lockyer is a steep rock headland 1.5 nautical miles (3 km) northeast of Lambeth Bluff on the southeast side of Heard Island. It was surveyed in 1948 by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions and named by them for Lieutenant H.C.J. Lockyer, Royal Australian Naval Volunteer Reserve, one of the officers on HMAS Labuan, relief ship for the expedition.
Livdebotnen Cirque is a cirque formed in the northeast side of Mount Flånuten and the west side of Botnfjellet Mountain, in the Humboldt Mountains of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. It was discovered and photographed by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39, was mapped by Norway from air photos and surveys by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60, and named Livdebotnen.
Harrison Bluff is a pale-colored trachyte headland forming the seaward termination of Trachyte Hill and marking the southern end of McDonald Beach on the western side of Mount Bird, Ross Island, Antarctica. Many skuas nest on the bluff. A survey station marked by a rock cairn was placed on the top of the northwest corner of the bluff by E.B. Fitzgerald of the Cape Bird party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1958–59, and the bluff was named by the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee for J. Harrison, mountaineer-assistant with the expedition.
McMahon Glacier is a glacier about 18 nautical miles (33 km) long in the Anare Mountains of Victoria Land, Antarctica. It drains north between the Buskirk Bluffs and Gregory Bluffs into Nielsen Fjord. The glacier was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for F.P. McMahon, Logistics Officer with the Australian Antarctic Division, who led a number of expeditions to Macquarie Island and was second-in-charge of several expeditions to Antarctica.
Manna Glacier is a broad depression-glacier located north of Stevenson Bluff and Mount Steele in the Wilson Hills of Antarctica. It drains northeastward into the eastern part of the Gillett Ice Shelf. The glacier was so named by the northern party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1963–64, because of an airdrop of extra comforts from an aircraft which carried the Governor-General of New Zealand over this area was like "manna from heaven".
The Hornblende Bluffs are prominent bluffs that rise to 1,050 metres (3,440 ft), located 2 nautical miles (4 km) southeast of Mount Ellery and near the head of Suvorov Glacier, in the Wilson Hills of Antarctica. The feature was so named by the northern party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1963–64, who found the rock here contains the mineral hornblende.
