Ice-covered cape between Ravin Bay and Barre Glacier. Discovered in 1840 by the French expedition under Capt. Jules Dumont d'Urville and named by him for his wife Adele Pepin. The area was charted by the AAE in 1912-13, and again by the BANZARE in 1931, both under Mawson. The cape was more recently delineated from aerial photographs taken by USN Operation HighJump, 1946-47.
