Triple Islands (Antarctica)
Trio of islands in Adélie Land, Antarctica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Triple Islands are three small rocky islands lying close east of the tip of Zélée Glacier Tongue and 0.7 kilometres (0.4 nmi) south-southeast of the Double Islands. They were photographed from the air by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and were charted and named by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1949–51.[1]
