Schokalsky Bay

'''Schokalsky Bay''' ({{coor dm|69|15|S|69|55|W|}}) is a [[bay]], 9 nautical miles (17 km) wide at its entrance and indenting 6 nautical miles (11 km) between [[Mount Calais]] and [[Cape Brown]] along the east coast of [[Alexander Island]]. Hampton Glacier discharges tremendous amounts of ice into the head of Schokalsky Bay at a steep gradient causing the ice there to be extremely broken and irregular, and discourages use of this bay and [[glacier]] as an inland sledging route onto northeast Alexander Island. First sighted from a distance in 1909 and roughly charted by the [[French Antarctic Expedition]] under Charcot who, thinking it to be a strait, gave the name "[[Detroit Schokalsky]]" after [[Yuliy M. Shokal]]'skiy, Russian geographer, meteorologist and oceanographer. Charcot followed the spelling Schokalsky used by the man himself when writing in Roman script. The coast in this vicinity was photographed from the air and this bay roughly charted in 1937 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE), but Charcot's "Detroit Schokalsky" was not identified. Surveys by [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) in 1948 identified this bay as the feature originally named by Charcot.

Scripps Heights

'''Scripps Heights''' ({{coor dm|69|8|S|63|40|W|}}) is a rugged heights which are largely ice covered, surmounting the [[peninsula]] between Casey and [[Lurabee Glaciers]] on the east coast of [[Palmer Land]]. Deeply scarred by glaciers, the heights terminate on the east in [[Cape Walcott]]. Discovered by [[Sir Hubert Wilkins]] in his pioneer flight on [[December 20]], [[1928]]. Thinking the feature to be a large [[island]] lying between two great transverse channels which completely severed [[Antarctic Peninsula]], he named it [[Scripps Island]] for [[William Scripps]] of Detroit, MI. Correlation of aerial photographs taken by [[Lincoln Ellsworth]] in 1935 and preliminary reports of the findings of the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill, 1934-37, led [[W.L.G. Joerg]] to interpret this to be a peninsula. In published reports, members of the BGLE have concurred in this interpretation which was also borne out by the results of subsequent flights and a sledge trip from [[East Base]] by members of the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS) in 1940.

Scudding Glacier

'''Scudding Glacier''' ({{coor dm|76|54|S|160|45|E|}}) is an abrupt [[glacier]], 3 nautical miles (6 km) long, descending into the end of [[Alatna Valley]] from the south side of [[Mount Gunn]] in the [[Convoy Range]], [[Victoria Land]]. This high elevation glacier is adjacent to the neve of [[Cambridge Glacier]] and snow laden katabatic winds make their first descent into Alatna Valley over the glacier. Even on days of relatively light winds, snow clouds derived from the high neve may be seen swirling and scudding down this glacier. So named by the 1989-90 [[New Zealand Antarctic Research Program]] (NZARP) field party to the area.
