General information (en): Point forming the E side of the entrance to Hidden Bay, on the W coast of Graham Land. First charted by the BelgAE under Gerlache, 1897-99. The name appears on an Argentine government chart of 1957 and is probably descriptive; "aguda" is Spanish for sharp or sharp pointed (http://www.geoscience.scar.org/meetings/shanghai/cga_letter_a.pdf / http://geonames.usgs.gov) |
