Rocky point forming the E end of the high ridge separating Venus and Neptune Glaciers on the E coast of Alexander Island. The coast in this vicinity was first seen from the air by Lincoln Ellsworth on Nov. 23, 1935, and roughly mapped from photos obtained on that flight by W.L.G. Joerg. The point was roughly surveyed in 1936 by the BGLE and more accurately defined in 1949 by the FIDS. Named by the UK-APC for its association with Neptune Glacier, Triton being a satellite of Neptune.
