ice foot

Here, on the other hand, there was open water, too shallow for the 'Aurora' to be moored alongside the ice-foot.

Madigan, who was in charge of the whale-boat, kept it moored in the boat-harbour under shelter of the ice-foot.

On the northern faces of the ridges, fronting the ice-foot, large, yellowish patches mark the sites of penguin rookeries.

The first penguin came waddling up the ice-foot against a seventy-mile wind late on the afternoon of October 12.

A heaving swell came in from the north, and many seals landed within the boat harbour, where a high tide lapped over the ice-foot.
