Narrative

Fue descubierto en 1902 por la Expedición Antártica Sueca al mando del comandante Otto Nordenskjöld y llamada así por él debido a que encontró muchas grietas que le dificultaban el aproximarse al cabo. Fue visitado nuevamente por el FIDS en 1947. Cabo que señala el extremo de una península cubierta de hielo que se extiende por 9 millas desde el E de Tierra de O'Higgins. Su cima es redondeada, se eleva a 225 metros de altura y sus laderas empinadas presentan manchas de piedra desnuda.
