The Arctic Archipelago, also known as the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, is a group of islands north of the Canadian mainland.
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.
Mount Ancla is a mountain, 815 m, which is snow-covered except for a rock ridge on its south side, standing 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) north of Cape Lancaster, Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. The mountain was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1944 and 1955. The name Monte Ancla first appears on an Argentine government chart of 1950.
Wall Range is a mountain range, 3 nautical miles long in a NE-SW direction with steep wall-like cliffs and jagged peaks rising to 1,095 metres (3,593 ft), extending from Thunder Glacier to Channel Glacier in the center of Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. First mapped by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache. Surveyed in 1944 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) and given this descriptive name.
Damoy Point is a headland 900 metres (980 yd) west-northwest of Flag Point, the northern entrance point to the harbour of Port Lockroy, on the western side of Wiencke Island in the Palmer Archipelago of Antarctica. It was discovered and named by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot.
Dorian Bay is a cove on the northwest side of Wiencke Island, 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) east-northeast of Damoy Point, in the Palmer Archipelago of Antarctica. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, and named by him after Monsieur Dorian, a member of the French Chamber of Deputies.
Mount Percy is a prominent mountain, 765 m, the highest feature on Joinville Island, standing immediately north of Mount Alexander near the center of the island. Discovered by a British expedition under James Clark Ross on December 30, 1842, and named for admiral Josceline Percy, Royal Navy, (1784–1856). Although this mountain is not surmounted by twin peaks, as described by Ross, there are a number of peaks of similar height in its vicinity, one of which may have given rise to Ross' description.
Flag Point is a point which lies 0.3 nautical miles (0.6 km) east-southeast of Damoy Point and forms the north side of the entrance to Port Lockroy, Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot. It was named by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1944; when the FIDS base at Port Lockroy was established in 1944, a metal Union Flag was erected on this point.
Flett Buttress is a rock crag rising to 905 metres (2,970 ft) northwest of Mount Haddington on James Ross Island. It provides the highest exposure of volcanic rock on the island. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1987 after William R. Flett, a geologist on Operation Tabarin at Deception Island, 1943–44, and Hope Bay, 1944–45.
Giard Point is a point forming the north extremity of Obitel Peninsula and the south side of the entrance to Perrier Bay, on the northwest coast of Anvers Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for Alfred Giard, a noted French zoologist and member of the Institut de France.
Hanka Island is a small island lying near the head of Leith Cove, Paradise Harbor, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The name was applied by Scottish geologist David Ferguson, who visited this area in the whaler Hanka in 1913–14.
Harbour Glacier is a through glacier 3 nautical miles (6 km) long and 1.5 nautical miles (3 km) wide, lying on the northwest side of Wiencke Island and extending in a northeast direction from Port Lockroy to the cove 1 nautical mile (2 km) east of Noble Peak, in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It was probably first seen by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache. The glacier was charted in 1944 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, who so named it because of its proximity to the harbour of Port Lockroy.
Mission Rock is a low-lying rock lying southwest of the Guébriant Islands, off the south end of Adelaide Island, Antarctica. It was surveyed by the Royal Navy Hydrographic Survey Unit, 1962–63, and was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1963 because of the rock's proximity to the Guébriant Islands, which were named for the French missionary Father Jean Budes de Guébriant.
Tombstone Hill is a hill which rises to 50 m close east-northeast of Damoy Point, Wiencke Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. Discovered and first mapped by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Charcot. The name given by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1944 is descriptive of some rocks on the top of the hill.
The Kendall Rocks are a group of pillar-shaped rocks, lying 3 nautical miles (6 km) north of Tower Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. The name "Kendall Group" appears northwest of this position on a chart based upon work by a British expedition under Commander Henry Foster, Royal Navy, 1828–31, but it was later found that no islands exist there. The name Kendall Rocks has subsequently been applied to these pillar-shaped rocks discovered in 1838 by a French expedition under Captain Jules Dumont d'Urville. They are named for Lieutenant E.N. Kendall of Foster's expedition ship, the Chanticleer.
Victory Glacier is a gently sloping glacier, 8 nautical miles (15 km) long, flowing east-southeast from the north end of Detroit Plateau on Trinity Peninsula to Prince Gustav Channel immediately north of Pitt Point. Bounded by Trakiya Heights to the north and Kondofrey Heights to the south. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), and so named because the glacier was sighted in the week following the surrender of Japan in World War II, in August 1945.
Lautaro Island is an island 1 nautical mile (2 km) long, lying just west of Lemaire Island in Gerlache Strait, off the Antarctic Peninsula. It was probably first seen by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition (1897–99) under Gerlache. The island was named by the Chilean Antarctic Expedition (1948–49) after the Lautaro, one of the Chilean expedition ships working in the area that season.
Lemaire Island is an island 4.5 nautical miles (8 km) long and 1.5 nautical miles (3 km) wide, lying 1 nautical mile (2 km) west of Duthiers Point off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Adrien de Gerlache, who named it for Charles Antoine Lemaire. The island is bordered by the Aguirre Passage which separates it from the Danco Coast.
