Arrowsmith Peninsula

Arrowsmith Peninsula (67°15′S 67°15′W / 67.250°S 67.250°W / -67.250; -67.250) is a cape about 40 miles (64 km) long on the west coast of Graham Land, west of Forel Glacier, Sharp Glacier and Lallemand Fjord, and northwest of Bourgeois Fjord, with Hanusse Bay lying to the northwest.

Photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition (FIDASE) in 1957, it was mapped by FIDS from 1956 to 1959, and later named for Petr A. Shumskiy, Russian glaciologist.

[9] The southernmost extremity of the peninsula is Cape Saenz, which was named by Charcot for Roque Sáenz Peña, President of the Argentine Republic.

[11] Farther east, just before Arrowsmith Peninsula joins the main coast, rocky Chertigrad Point marks the west side of the entrance to Blind Bay, the northeast extremity and head of Bourgeois Fjord.
