[edit] Calf Head

'''Calf Head''' ({{coor dm|54|28|S|36|3|W|}}) is a rocky [[headland]] on the north coast of [[South Georgia]], 3 nautical miles (6 km) northwest of [[Cape Harcourt]]. The name "[[Kalber-Berg]]" (calf [[mountain]]) was given by the German group of the [[International Polar Year Investigations]], 1882-83, but was limited to the summit of the headland. The feature was surveyed by the SGS, 1951-52, who reported that a name is more essential for its seaward extremity in order to distinguish it from Cape Harcourt, with which it is easily confused when viewed from north and NW. The English form of the name, Calf Head, was recommended by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1954.

The new name, given by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC), is descriptive of the summit, which is long and gently sloping like a cambered road surface.

'''Cannonball Cliffs''' ({{coor dm|71|47|S|68|15|W|}}) is a cliffs at the south side of the terminus of [[Neptune Glacier]] on the east side of [[Alexander Island]]. The feature consists of two east-west ridges about 500 m high, joined by a narrow north-south ridge. The feature was mapped from trimetrogon air photography taken by [[Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition]] (RARE), 1947-48, and from survey by [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS), 1948-50. The name was applied by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) for the sandstone in the area, which contains numerous spherical, brown concretions known as "cannon-ball" concretions.

'''Cargo Pond''' ({{coor dm|76|55|S|161|5|E|}}) is a pond in a moraine enclosed basin at the foot of the cliffs to the south end of [[Alatna Valley]], in the [[Convoy Range]] of [[Victoria Land]].

Equipment and provisions stockpiled on the pond ice were eventually redistributed by the wind and lodged among the surrounding morainic boulders. A 1989-90 [[New Zealand Antarctic Research Program]] (NZARP) party ([[Trevor Chinn]]) camped nearby made frequent visits to the site to clean up the area, but also to acquire various 30-year old exotic foods to supplement their standard camp fare.

'''Carlita Bay''' ({{coor dm|54|14|S|36|38|W|}}) is a small [[bay]] in the west side of [[Cumberland West Bay]], [[South Georgia]], just west of [[Islet Point]]. The feature was named "[[Horseshoe Bay]]," probably during the survey of Cumberland West Bay by HMS Dartmouth in 1920, but this name has been accepted for a bay close south of [[Cape George]], less than 15 nautical miles (28 km) away. A new name, proposed by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1957, has been substituted for the feature now described; Carlita Bay is for the Carlita (or [[Lille Carl]]), a whale catcher built in 1907, owned by the [[Compania Argentina]] de Pesca and used for sealing and for general transport work.

[edit] Cascade Bluff

'''Cascade Bluff''' ({{coor dm|84|57|S|178|10|W|}}) is a low, mainly ice-covered bluff that forms the southwest wall of [[Mincey Glacier]] in the [[Queen Maud Mountains]]. The feature was so named by the [[Texas Tech-Shackleton Glacier Party]], 1962-63, because water cascades over the bluff during warm periods.

[edit] Case Island

'''Case Island''' ({{coor dm|73|19|S|77|48|W|}}) is a roughly circular ice-covered [[island]], 12 nautical miles (22 km) in diameter, lying off the coast of [[Ellsworth Land]]. The island lies in [[Carroll Inlet]] between the mainland and [[Smyley Island]]. Mapped by [[United States Geological Survey]] (USGS) from surveys and [[U.S. Navy]] aerial photographs, 1961-66. The name was suggested by [[Finn Ronne]] for [[Senator Francis H. Case]] (1896-1962), who assisted in obtaining Government support to provide a ship for the [[Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition]], 1947-48.

[edit] Casey Glacier

'''Casey Glacier''' ({{coor dm|69|0|S|63|50|W|}}) is a [[glacier]] 6 nautical miles (11 km) wide, flowing east into [[Casey Inlet]] on the east coast of [[Palmer Land]]. Discovered by [[Sir Hubert Wilkins]] on an aerial flight of [[December 20]], [[1928]]. Wilkins believed the feature to be a channel cutting completely across [[Antarctic Peninsula]], naming it [[Casey Channel]] after Rt. Hon. [[Richard G. Casey]]. Correlation of aerial photographs taken by [[Lincoln Ellsworth]] in 1935 and preliminary reports of the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE), 1934-37, led [[W.L.G. Joerg]] to interpret this glacier to be what Wilkins named Casey Channel. This interpretation is borne out by the results of subsequent exploration by members of the [[East Base]] of the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS) in 1940.

[edit] Casey Inlet

Surveyed by the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) in 1947. The inlet takes its name from Casey Glacier.

'''Casey Islands''' ({{coor dm|64|44|S|64|16|W|}}) is a group of small islands in the west part of [[Wylie Bay]], south of [[Cape Monaco]], [[Anvers Island]], in the [[Palmer Archipelago]].

Named by [[Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names]] (US-ACAN) after [[Casey A. Jones]], Jr., cook with the winter party at the nearby [[U.S. Palmer Station]] in 1979. He died in an accident, [[January 9]], [[1980]], while serving at the [[U.S. South Pole Station]].

[edit] Cassidy Glacier

'''Cassidy Glacier''' ({{coor dm|77|46|S|160|9|E|}}) is a [[glacier]] 7 nautical miles (13 km) long and 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) wide, flowing northeast into upper [[Taylor Glacier]] between [[Depot Nunatak]] and the northwest end of [[Quartermain Mountains]], in [[Victoria Land]].

Subsequent mapping has shown that the glacier described here is part of the Taylor Glacier system. Named by [[Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names]] (US-ACAN) in 1992 after [[William A. Cassidy]], Department of Geology and [[Planetary Science]], University of Pittsburgh, who in 13 field seasons, 1976-90, led [[United States Antarctic Research Program]] (USARP) teams in the investigation and collection of Antarctic meteorites from diverse sites through Victoria Land and southward to [[Lewis Cliff]], adjacent to [[Queen Alexandra Range]].
