Letelier Bank (62°28′01.1″S 59°39′28.8″W / 62.466972°S 59.658000°W) is lying off Ash Point, while Bascopé Point (62°28′15.3″S 59°39′42″W / 62.470917°S 59.66167°W) is situated 460 m (503 yd)to the southwest, with the 1 km (0.62 mi) wide Rojas Cove (62°28′31″S 59°39′48″W / 62.47528°S 59.66333°W) indenting for 310 m (339 yd) the coast between that point and Guesalaga Peninsula. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.

  • Ash Point is a rounded low ice-free point forming the southeast side of the entrance to Discovery Bay in the northeast of Greenwich Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica with an adjacent ice-free area of 201 hectares (500 acres). Letelier Bank (62°28′01.1″S 59°39′28.8″W / 62.466972°S 59.658000°W) is lying off Ash Point, while Bascopé Point (62°28′15.3″S 59°39′42″W / 62.470917°S 59.66167°W) is situated 460 m (503 yd)to the southwest, with the 1 km (0.62 mi) wide Rojas Cove (62°28′31″S 59°39′48″W / 62.47528°S 59.66333°W) indenting for 310 m (339 yd) the coast between that point and Guesalaga Peninsula. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers. Ash Point was charted and named descriptively by the Discovery Investigations in 1935. Bascopé Point and Rojas Cove were named by the 1947 Chilean Antarctic Expedition respectively for First Lieutenant Juan Bascopé, meteorologist of the expedition, and for Captain Gabriel Rojas, Commander of the expedition transport ship Angamos, and Letelier Bank was probably named after a member of the expedition.

Sie flankiert südöstlich die Einfahrt zur Discovery Bay. An ihrem südöstlichen Ende befindet sich der Bascopé Point. Teilnehmer der britischen Discovery Investigations in den Jahren 1934 bis 1935 benannten das Kap deskriptiv nach seinem aschefarbenen Gestein. (de)
  • Ash Point är en udde i Antarktis. Den ligger i Sydshetlandsöarna. Argentina, Chile och Storbritannien gör anspråk på området. Terrängen inåt land är lite kuperad. Havet är nära Ash Point åt nordväst. Den högsta punkten i närheten är López Nunatak, 275 meter över havet, 1,9 kilometer söder om Ash Point. Trakten är glest befolkad. Närmaste befolkade plats är Maldonado Station, 4,9 kilometer väster om Ash Point. (sv)
