[edit] Hearst Island

'''Hearst Island''' ({{coor dm|69|25|S|62|10|W|}}) is an ice-covered, dome-shaped [[island]] lying 4 nautical miles (7 km) east of [[Cape Rymill]], off the east coast of [[Palmer Land]]. The island is 36 nautical miles (70 km) long, in a north-south direction, 7 nautical miles (13 km) wide, and rises to 365 m First sighted on a flight on [[December 20]], [[1928]] by [[Sir Hubert Wilkins]]. Thinking it was part of the mainland of Antarctica, he named it [[Hearst Land]] for [[William Randolph Hearst]], who helped finance the expedition. It was resighted and its insularity ascertained in 1940 by members of the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS) who explored this coast by land and from the air. They named it [[Wilkins Island]]. Examination of aerial photographs have shown, however, that this large island is what Wilkins considered Hearst Land.

[edit] Hektoria Glacier

'''Hektoria Glacier''' ({{coor dm|65|3|S|61|31|W|}}) is a [[glacier]] flowing south from the area around [[Mount Johnson]] into [[Larsen Ice Shelf]] just west of [[Shiver Point]], on the east coast of the [[Antarctic Peninsula]].

Following]] survey by [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) in 1947, the feature could not be identified; however, during further survey by FIDS in 1955, Wilkins' "long ice-filled fiords" were found to be this glacier and two short unnamed ones.
