Cape Spirit

Cape Spirit (78°12′S 166°45′E) is the easternmost point of Black Island, in the Ross Archipelago. Visited by the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) (1958–59) and so named by them because of the almost constant and spirited winds blowing through the strait between Black and White Islands.
