from American Museum Glaciers the Coast Trends south west five and with a gentle curve ends off into Dalbot Inlet running about west. At the constricted part of the inlet it turns north of west, the end of the inlet could not be seen either yesterday or today. Should judge it at least 25 miles in length.

About half way from Paris Bluff Glaciers and the Point that one mile from land then is an island, low, fifty feet above water I should say. Extending north and northeast there are two lines of ledges which are evidently exposed at low tide
