Mikhailov Peninsula

Its latitude is 75° 05' N and its longitude 87° 15' E. The Mikhailov Peninsula is covered with tundra and it lies north of the Minina Skerries.

It belongs to the Krasnoyarsk Krai administrative division of the Russian Federation.

[1] The climate in the area is cold with long bitter winters.

In 1921, a Soviet-Norwegian expedition led by Nikifor Begichev looking for Roald Amundsen's men Peter Tessem and Paul Knutsen, found the remains of a campfire with charred bones near the Mikhailov Peninsula.

Recent evidence, however, points out that this campfire had been probably left behind by the ill-fated Rusanov expedition.
