The feature is almost wholly surrounded by an ice shelf, which gives an erroneous impression that the island is joined to Ellsworth Land.
This larger composite feature was observed from aircraft by members of the USAS, 1939-41, who gave the name "Cape Smyley" to the projecting ice shelf at the northwest extremity.
A roughly circular ice-covered island, 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) in diameter, lying off the coast of Ellsworth Land.
Named by US-ACAN for Captain Richard Thornton, commander of United States NavyS Eltanin on Antarctic cruises, 1967-68.
The easternmost member of the Snow Nunataks, standing 8 nautical miles (15 km; 9.2 mi) east-southeast of Mount Thornton.
