It was charted and named in 1951 by the French Antarctic Expedition. The name is suggestive of the island's form which resembles the two humps on a (bactrian) camel, "chameau" being a French word for camel.
Johnson Island is an ice-covered island, about 17 kilometres (9 nmi) long and 9 kilometres (5 nmi) wide, lying within the Abbot Ice Shelf, Antarctica, about 26 kilometres (14 nmi) southeast of Dustin Island. The feature was observed and roughly positioned as an "ice rise" by parties from the USS Glacier (AGB-4) in February 1961. It was remapped by the United States Geological Survey from U.S. Navy air photos, 1966, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Theodore L. Johnson, an electrical engineer at Byrd Station in 1964–65.
The Knight Rocks are a group of small rocks which lie 8 kilometres (4.5 nmi) west-northwest of the south end of Snow Island, in the South Shetland Islands. The rocks were so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee following a survey by Lieutenant Commander F.W. Hunt, Royal Navy, in 1951–52, because of their proximity to Castle Rock.
Grinder Island is one of the ice-covered islands in the Marshall Archipelago, located within the Sulzberger Ice Shelf off the coast of Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica. The island is 13 kilometres (7 nmi) long and 2 kilometres (1 nmi) wide and lies 24 kilometres (13 nmi) southwest of Steventon Island.

Mossman Inlet is a narrow ice-filled inlet which recedes north 19 kilometres (10 nmi) between Cape Kidson and the southwest end of Kemp Peninsula, along the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. This inlet was first seen and photographed from the air in December 1940 by the United States Antarctic Service, and during 1947 it was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition under Finn Ronne, who in conjunction with the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) charted it from the ground. It was named by the FIDS for British meteorologist and climatologist Robert C. Mossman, 1870–1940, a member of the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition under William Speirs Bruce, 1902–04.
Kitney Island is a small island 2 kilometres (1 nmi) east-northeast of the Smith Rocks, 2 kilometres (1 nmi) southwest of the Wiltshire Rocks, and 5 kilometres (2.5 nmi) northwest of the Paterson Islands, off the coast of Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. The Lars Christensen Expedition (1936) first mapped this island which, though left unnamed, was included in a small group named by them "Spjotoyskjera". It was remapped by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition (ANARE) in 1956, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for V.J. Kitney, a supervising technician (radio) at Mawson Station in 1968.
Keep Rock is a small rock lying 1.5 kilometres (0.8 nmi) west-southwest of Castle Rock, off the west side of Snow Island, in the South Shetland Islands. The name, which derives from "keep" in association with Castle Rock, was given by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee following survey by Lieutenant Commander F.W. Hunt, Royal Navy, in 1951–52.
Ryrie Rock is an isolated rock off the coast, 20 kilometres (11 nmi) northeast of Kidson Island and 48 kilometres (26 nmi) northeast of Byrd Head. Discovered in February 1931 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) under Mawson, who named it for the Australian High Commissioner in London at the time.
