Butter Point is located in McMurdo Sound in Antarctica. This area at the mouth of the Ferrar Glacier is straight across the sound from Hut Point. It was considered as the site of New Zealand's Scott Base because it offered the best approach by sea and access to the inland plateau. It was not used, with Pram Point chosen instead. It was named by Scott's party as a depot point where a variety of supplies were cached, including a great deal of butter. * v * t * e

  • Butter Point är en udde i Antarktis. Den ligger i Östantarktis. Nya Zeeland gör anspråk på området. Terrängen inåt land är platt åt sydost, men åt sydväst är den kuperad. Havet är nära Butter Point åt nordost. Den högsta punkten i närheten är 981 meter över havet, 12,0 kilometer sydväst om Butter Point. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)

  • Der Butter Point ist eine flache Landspitze an der Scott-Küste des ostantarktischen Viktorialands. Sie markiert die Südseite der Einfahrt zum New Harbour, der Mündungszone des Ferrar-Gletschers in den McMurdo-Sund. Das Kap wurde von Teilnehmern der Discovery-Expedition (1901–1904) unter der Leitung des britischen Polarforschers Robert Falcon Scott entdeckt. Namensgebend war, dass der Teil der Mannschaft, der den Ferrar-Gletscher während der Expedition erkundete, an dieser Stelle eine Konservendose mit Butter hinterließ in der Absicht, diese beim Rückmarsch für die Zubereitung von frischem Robbenfleisch zu verwenden.
