Turret Island

Turret Island (

71°22′S 169°13′E / 71.367°S 169.217°E / -71.367; 169.217Coordinates: 71°22′S 169°13′E / 71.367°S 169.217°E / -71.367; 169.217) is a small island, ice-covered except for the north face. It lies partly within the seaward terminus of Shipley Glacier, 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) west of Flat Island, along the north coast of Victoria Land. The rocky north end projecting from the glacier is suggestive of a turret. It was charted and named by the Northern Party, led by Campbell, of the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13.
