Iceberg Point
Iceberg Point is a prominent point 8 miles (13 km) west-southwest of Ryswyck Point, on the east side of Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. The point was first mapped by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99. The name appears on a chart based upon a 1927 survey by Discovery Investigations personnel on the Discovery, but may reflect an earlier naming.[1]
