Edwards Islands (Canisteo Peninsula)
The Edwards Islands are a group of about 20 small islands, mostly ice free, lying off the southwest tip of Canisteo Peninsula in the Amundsen Sea. They were plotted from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 in January 1960, and were named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Z T Edwards, chief quartermaster on the USS Glacier during the U.S. Navy Bellingshausen Sea Expedition to this area in February 1960.
