Reclus Peninsula is a 7-mile-long (11 km) peninsula on the west coast of Graham Land in Antarctica, enclosing Charlotte Bay to its east. It was first charted in 1898 by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Adrien de Gerlache, who named its northern extremity "Cap Reclus" for the French geographer and author Elisee Reclus (1830–1905). The UK-APC extended the name Reclus to the entire peninsula in 1960.
Cape Longing is a rocky cape on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica, forming the south end of a large ice-covered promontory which marks the west side of the south entrance to Prince Gustav Channel. It was discovered by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Otto Nordenskiöld in 1902, and so named by him because from the position of his winter hut on Snow Hill Island the cape lay in the direction of his "land of longing" which he was anxious to explore.
Alberts Glacier is a heavily crevassed glacier in Antarctica. It is about 8 miles (13 km) long, and flows east from Avery Plateau, Graham Land, until entering Mill Inlet between Balch Glacier and Southard Promontory. The glacier was photographed from the air by the U.S. Navy in 1968. It was delineated from these photographs by Directorate of Overseas Surveys, 1980, and positioned from surveys by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, 1947–57. In association with the names of Antarctic historians around the area, it was named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Fred G. Alberts, an American toponymist, and secretary of the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names 1949–80.

It was discovered and named by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, probably for Commandant Alfonso Chaves of Ponta Delgada, Azores, but the spelling Chavez has become established through long usage.
Nuñez Point is a point forming the west extremity of Takaki Promontory on Barison Peninsula on Graham Coast, Graham Land, in Antarctica. Discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Charcot for Captain Nuñez, Argentine Navy.
Wiggins Glacier is a 10 nautical miles (18 km) long glacier on Kiev Peninsula in Antarctica, flowing from Bruce Plateau to the west coast of Graham Land just south of Blanchard Ridge. Charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Charcot, and named Glacier du Milieu. Feeling that a more distinctive name was needed, the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1959 renamed the glacier for W.D.C. Wiggins, then Deputy Director of Overseas Surveys.
Jorum Glacier is a glacier draining the southeast slopes of Forbidden Plateau, and flowing east along the north side of Austa Ridge into Borima Bay southwest of Furen Point, on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1947 and 1955. The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee name alludes to the punchbowl shape of the head of the glacier, a "jorum" being a large drinking bowl used for punch.
Grotto Island is a narrow island 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) long with a serrated coastline, lying 0.1 nautical miles (0.2 km) north of Galindez Island in the Argentine Islands, Wilhelm Archipelago, Antarctica. It was charted and named in 1935 by the British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill.
Polaris Glacier is a distinctive glacier, 4 nautical miles (7 km) long, flowing southward from Detroit Plateau, between Pyke and Eliason Glaciers on Nordenskjöld Coast in northern Graham Land, Antarctica. Mapped from surveys by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) (1960–61). Named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) after the "Polaris" motor sledge made by Polaris Industries, Roseau, Minnesota, and used in Antarctica since 1960.
Meusnier Point is a point within Charlotte Bay, forming the western extremity of Eurydice Peninsula, and lying 4 nautical miles (7 km) southeast of Portal Point on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was charted by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, 1897–99, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1960 for French military engineer Jean B.M. Meusnier, the prophetic designer, in 1785, of the first dirigible airship.
The Miller Heights are a series of elevations extending eastward from Sharp Peak on Velingrad Peninsula, Graham Coast on the west side of Graham Land, Antarctica. The feature was roughly charted by the British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill, 1934–37, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Ronald Miller, a Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey general assistant at Detaille Island in 1956 and leader at Prospect Point in 1957.
Meiklejohn Glacier is a glacier, 12 nautical miles (22 km) long and 4 nautical miles (7 km) wide, flowing southwest from the Dyer Plateau of Palmer Land, Antarctica, to George VI Sound, immediately south of Moore Point. In its lower reaches the south side of this glacier merges with Millett Glacier. It was first surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under John Rymill, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1954 for Ian F. Meiklejohn, a radio operator of the BGLE.
Haverly Peak is a peak rising to 960 metres (3,150 ft), 1 nautical mile (2 km) east of the head of Azure Cove, Flandres Bay, on the northeast coast of Kiev Peninsula, Graham Land, Antarctica. In association with the names of cartographers grouped near this area, it was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1986 after William R. Haverly of the Cartographic Section at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office from 1970, and its Head from 1986, with responsibility for preparing UK-APC maps.

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 Henry W. Hoek (1878–1951), a pioneer Swiss ski-mountaineer and author of one of the earliest skiing manuals.
Mount Solus is a conspicuous, isolated mountain in the center and near the mouth of Weyerhaeuser Glacier, in southern Graham Land, the northernmost part of the mainland of Antarctica. It has steep rock sides meeting in a sharp summit ridge. Photographed from the air by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in August 1947, and by Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) in December 1947. Surveyed by FIDS in December 1958. The United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) name is descriptive of the isolated position of the feature.
Rossa Point is a point 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) northeast of Ferin Head on Velingrad Peninsula, the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. Charted by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill, 1934-37. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1959 for Anders Rossa, a Jokkmokk Sami who, with Pava Tuorda, accompanied A.E. Nordenskjold to Greenland in 1883 and first demonstrated the possibilities of skis for polar travel.
Lind Glacier is a glacier flowing west from Alencar Peak into the southern part of Collins Bay, on the west coast of Kiev 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.
