Dragons Teeth (Antarctica)

Dragons Teeth (63°15′S 58°39′W) are a small group of rocks rising to c. 100 m off the northeastern part of Astrolabe Island, off Trinity Peninsula in Antarctica. They were photographed from the air and surveyed from the ground by FIDASE, 1955-57. The name, applied by UK-APC, is descriptive of these black tooth-shaped rocks.
