Hollin Island

Hollin Island is an Antarctic island about 1.9 kilometres (1 nmi) long, lying north of Midgley Island, in the Windmill Islands. It was first mapped from air photos taken by USN Operation Highjump in 1946 and 1947. It was named by the US-ACAN for John T. Hollin, glaciologist at Wilkes Station in 1958.
