[edit] Hugo Island

'''Hugo Island''' ({{coor dm|64|57|S|65|45|W|}}) is an isolated ice-covered [[island]] 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) long, with several rocky islets and pinnacles off its east side, located off the west side of [[Antarctic Peninsula]], about 40 nautical miles (70 km) southwest of [[Cape Monaco]], [[Anvers Island]]. Probably discovered by [[C.J. Evensen]], captain of the Peninsula in 1893, because an unnamed island of similar extent and location first appeared on the charts at that time.
