GEOGRAPHIC NAMES OF ANTARCTICA 



this headland by the Br-Apc in 1954. Not 

 adopted: Kalber-Berg [German]. 



CALF POINT: point which lies about 1 mi. W. 

 of Penelope Pt. on the SW. shore of Robertson Bay, 

 in northern Victoria Land; in about 71°30'S., 

 169°45'E. Charted and named in 1911 by the 

 Northern Party of the BrAE under Scott. 



CALF ROCK: rock mass on the E. coast of Al- 

 exander I Island, about 1,500 ft. in el., rising above 

 the coastal ice 2 mi. NE. of Lamina Peak and 2 

 mi. inland from George VI Sound; in 70°31'S., 

 68°38'W. This rock was first photographed from 

 the air on Nov. 23, 1935 by Lincoln Ellsworth, and 

 was mapped from these photographs by W. L. G. 

 Joerg. Surveyed in 1949 by the FIDS, and so 

 named by them because of its oflf-lying position; 

 it is separated from the Lamina Peak ridge by 

 faulting. 



CALMETTE, CAPE: cape marking the W. ex- 

 tremity of a rocky peninsula, about 1,500 ft. in 

 el., which projects from the W. coast of Palmer 

 Pen. about 3 mi. to form the S. shore of Cal- 

 mette Bay; in 68°04'S., 67°14'W. Disc, by the 

 FrAE under Charcot, 1908-10, who, from a dis- 

 tance, mistook this cape for an island. The BGLE 

 under Rymill, 1934-37, determined the true na- 

 ture of the feature. Named by Charcot for Gaston 

 Calmette, editor of Le Figaro, who furnished the 

 FrAE with copies of this newspaper for the two 

 years preceding the expedition. Not adopted: He 

 Calmette [French]. 



Calmette, He: see Calmette, Cape. 



CALMETTE BAY: small bay between Camp Pt. 

 and Cape Calmette, along the W. coast of Palmer 

 Pen.; in 68°03'S., 67°10'W. Charted by the BGLE 

 under Rymill, 1934-37, who named the bay for its 

 S. entrance point. Cape Calmette. 



CAMELS HUMP: dark bare knob about 7,600 

 ft. in el., standing at the head of Blue Gl. about 

 3 mi. S. of Cathedral Rocks, in the N. part of the 

 Royal Society Range in Victoria Land; in about 

 77°55'S., 162°34'E. Disc, and given this descriptive 

 name by the BrNAE under Scott, 1901-4. Not 

 adopted: Camel's Hump. 



CAMP BAY: small bay between Rosita Hbr. and 

 Sunset Fjord, in the W. side of the Bay of Isles, 

 South Georgia; in 54°02'S., 37°27'W. Charted 

 in 1929 by DI personnel and so named because 

 a temporary camp was set up on its S. shore. 



Campbell, Cape: see Tennyson, Cape. 



CAMPBELL GLACIER: glacier about 2.5 mi. 

 wide, which flows SW. from the W. slopes of Mt. 

 Melbourne and merges with the confluent ice W. 

 of Mt. Abbott, on the E. coast of Victoria Land; 

 in about 74°47'S., 163°46'E. Disc, by the BrNAE 

 under Scott, 1901-4. Named by the BrAE, 1910-13, 

 for Lt. Victor L. A. Campbell, RN, leader of the 

 BrAE Northern Party. Not adopted: Melbourne 

 Glacier. 



CAMPBELL HEAD: bold headland marking the 

 W. side of the entrance to Oom Bay, on Mac- 

 Robertson Coast; in about 67°25'S., 60°42'E. Disc, 

 on Feb. 18, 1931 by the BANZARE under Mawson, 

 and named by him for Lt. S. Campbell, pilot with 

 the expedition. 



CAMP HILL: ice-free hill, about 400 ft. in el., 

 which lies 1.5 mi. E. of Church Pt. on the SE. side 

 of Louis Philippe Pen.; in 63°41'S., 57°52'W. 

 Charted in 1946 by the FIDS, who so named it be- 

 cause a geological camp was established at the 

 foot of the hill. 



CAMP POINT: point which marks the W. ex- 

 tremity of the pyramid-shaped promontory, about 

 2,900 ft. in el., between Square Bay and Calmette 

 Bay on the W. coast of Palmer Pen.; in 67°58'S., 

 67°19'W. First seen by the FrAE under Charcot, 

 1908-10, but its relationship to adjacent features 

 was unknown at that time. It was accurately 

 charted by the BGLE under Rymill, 1934-37, who 

 camped here during survey work in this area. 



CAM ROCK: rock lying 200 yards E. of Water- 

 pipe Beach and the same distance NNW. of Billie 

 Rocks in Borge Bay, Signy I., South Orkney Is.; 

 in 60°43'S., 45°37'W. The rock is low and ice worn 

 and is not normally covered at high water. 

 Roughly surveyed in 1927 by DI personnel, and 

 so named by them presumably because of its shape. 



CANADA GLACIER: small glacier flowing in a 

 SE. direction to the N. side of Taylor Glacier Dry 

 Valley immediately W. of Mt. McLennan, in Vic- 

 toria Land; in about 77°37'S., 162°50'E. Charted 

 and named by the BrAE, 1910-13, under Scott. 

 Charles S. Wright, Canadian physicist, was a mem- 

 ber of the party that explored this area. 



Canal Principal: see Sound, The. 



Candlemis Island: see Candlemas Island. 



CANDLEMAS ISLAND: largest and easternmost 

 of the Candlemas Is., in the South Sandwich Is.; 

 in 57°03'S., 26°40'W. Charted in 1930 by DI per- 

 sonnel on the Discovery II, who named it after 

 the Candlemas Is. group. Not adopted: Candle- 

 mis Island.
