Cabinet Inlet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cabinet Inlet (66°35′S, 63°10′W) is an ice-filled inlet, 36 miles long in a NW-SE direction, and some 27 miles wide at its entrance between Cape Alexander and Cape Robinson, along the east coast of Graham Land. It was charted by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) and photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) in December 1947.

Cabinet Inlet was named by the FIDS for the British War Cabinet which authorized the FIDS in 1943.
