GEOGRAPHIC NAMES OF ANTARCTICA 



recommended spelling is based upon the form con- 

 sistently used on the maps accompanying the BrAE 

 scientific reports. Not adopted: Hjorth's Hill, 

 Hjort's Hill. 



Hjort's Hill: see Hjorth Hill. 



H. J. Sjogren Fiord: see Sjogren Glacier. 



Hoadky, Cape: see Hoadley, Cape. 



HOADLEY, CAPE: prominent rock outcrop 

 forming the W. portal of the valley occupied by 

 Scott Gl., on Queen Mary Coast; in about 66°33'S., 

 100°04'E. Disc, by the Western Base Party of the 

 AAE under Mawson in November 1912, and named 

 for C. A. Hoadley, geologist with the Western Base 

 Party. Not adopted: Cape Hoadky. 



HOBART ROCK: low rock lying in the S. side 

 of the entrance to King Edward Cove, Cumberland 

 East Bay, South Georgia; in 54° IT'S., 36°30'W. 

 The name appears on a chart based upon a survey 

 of -King Edward Cove by personnel on H.M.S. 

 Sappho in 1906. 



HOBBS COAST: that portion of the coast of 

 Marie Byrd Land extending from Emory Land Bay, 

 in about 75°45'S., 140°30'W., northeastward to the 

 W. edge of Getz Ice Shelf. Named by the USAS 

 in 1940 for Prof. William H. Hobbs of the Univ. of 

 Michigan, glaciologist specializing in polar geog- 

 raphy and history. 



HOBBS GLACIER: glacier about 15 mi. long and 

 1:5 mi. wide, which flows into McMurdo Sound 

 about 7 mi. S. of Blue GL, in Victoria Land; in 

 about 77°57'S., 164°37'E. Disc, by the BrNAE 

 under Scott, 1901-4. Members of the BrAE under 

 Scott, 1910-13, explored the area more thoroughly 

 and named this glacier for Prof. William H. Hobbs. 



HODGEMAN ISLETS : small group of ice-covered 

 islets, situated about 7 mi. WSW. of Cape De la 

 Motte, off George V Coast, in about 67°01'S., 

 144°15'E. Disc, in 1912 by the AAE, under Maw- 

 son, and named for Alfred J. Hodgeman, cartog- 

 rapher and asst. meteorologist with the Main Base 

 party. 



HODGES, MOUNT: mountain, about 2,000 ft. in 

 el., standing 1 mi. W. of Mt. Duse, close NW. of the 

 head of King Edward Cove, Cumberland West Bay, 

 iriSouth Georgia; in 54°16'S., 36°32'W. The peak 

 was first roughly surveyed by the SwedAE, 1901-4, 

 under Nordenskjold. The name "Moldaenke Berg" 

 was used for this peak on a 1907 map by A. Szie- 

 lasko, but the name has not survived on later 

 general charts of this area. The name Mount 

 Hodges appears to have been applied some years 



later and is now well established in use for this 

 peak. The name may be for Capt. M. H. Hodges, 

 RN, of the Sappho, who visited and mapped por- 

 tions of Cumberland Bay in 1906. Not adopted: 

 Moldaenke Berg [German] . 



HODSON, MOUNT: volcanic peak about 3,000 ft. 

 in el., marking the summit of Visokoi I., in the 

 South Sandwich Is.; in 56°42'S., 27°13'W. Disc, 

 by a Russ. exp. under Bellingshausen, 1819-21. 

 Charted in 1930 by DI personnel on the Discov- 

 ery II, who named it for Arnold Hodson, then Gov. 

 of the Falkland Islands. 



Hogback, The: see Hogback Hill. 



HOGBACK HILL: rounded mountain about 

 2,300 ft. in el., situated immediately N. of Hjorth 

 Hill and about 3 mi. W. of Cape Bernacchi, in 

 Victoria Land; in about 77°30'S., 163°34'E. 

 Charted and given this descriptive name by the 

 BrAE under Scott, 1910-13. Not adopted: The 

 Hogback. 



HOGS MOUTH ROCKS: chain of about three 

 rocks which extend from Invisible It. to Albatross 

 I. and form the E. limit of Committee Bay in the 

 Bay of Isles, South Georgia; in 54°01'S., 37°19'W. 

 First roughly charted in 1912-13 by Robert Cush- 

 man Murphy, American naturalist aboard the brig 

 Daisy. Probably named by DI personnel who sur- 

 veyed the Bay of Isles in 1929-30. Not adopted: 

 The Hogs Mouth Rocks. 



Holder, Mount: see Houlder, Mount. 



HOLE ROCK: southernmost of three aligned 

 rocks lying close NW. of North Foreland, the NE. 

 cape of King George I., in the south Shetland Is.; 

 in 61°52'S., 57°41'W. Charted in 1937 by DI per- 

 sonnel on the Discovery II, who so named it be- 

 cause a conspicuous hole extends through it. 



HOLLICK-KENYON PENINSULA: narrow, ice- 

 covered spur from the main mountain mass of 

 Palmer Pen., which projects about 30 mi. in a NE. 

 arc from its base at the E. side of Mobiloil Inlet; 

 centering in 68°30'S., 63°30'W. Disc, and par- 

 tially photographed from the air by Lincoln Ells- 

 worth on his trans-Antarctic flight in November- 

 December 1935 from Dundee I. to the Ross Sea. 

 Photographed from the air and charted from the 

 ground in 1940 by the USAS. Nanjed for Herbert 

 Hollick-Kenyon, pilot on Ellsworth's flight in 1935, 

 whose demonstration of the practicability of land- 

 ing and taking off an airplane in isolated areas 

 constitutes a distinct contribution to the technique 

 of Antarctic exploration.
