Abstract
Prince Charles Foreland is a long, narrow, mountainous island with a N.N.W. to S.S.E. extension, which lies parallel to the western mainland coast of Spitsbergen, but separated from it by the Foreland Sound, with an average width of ten miles. Its southern extremity lies on the same parallel of latitude as Mt. Alkhornet at the entrance to Ice Fiord, and its most northerly point on the same parallel of latitude as King's Bay. The island is thus about 54 miles long, and is on an average 5 miles wide, the maximum width of 6½ miles being attained near Pt. James Murray, and also south of Ferrier Haven. Its area is approximately 270 square miles (see map, fig. 1).
