Cape Roget

Cape Roget is a steep rock cape at the southern end of the east coast of the Adare Peninsula, marking the northern side of the entrance to Moubray Bay, in northern Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was discovered in 1841 by Captain James Clark Ross, who named it for Peter Mark Roget, British physician, lexicographer and Secretary of the Royal Society.
