Petermann Island is
where the French expedition led by Charcot wintered in 1909, and it is
now the site of an old Argentine hut. The island was covered in a blanket
of snow and occupied by a colony of gentoo penguins. There were a few
Adelie penguins but having a short nesting season most had already left.
