It was mapped from air photos taken by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition (1956–57), and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Harwood S.

Capitán Estivariz Refuge
Capitán Estivariz Refuge (-66.38333°N, -67.21667°W) is an Argentine refuge in Antarctica located on a small island between the southwest coast of Watkins Island and Belding Island, in the group of the Biscoe Islands. The refuge opened on February 29, 1956, and it is administered by the Argentine Navy. His name pays tribute to Lieutenant commander Eduardo Anibal Estivariz who participated in the coup d'état carried out in September 1955 and died in a plane crash.

The icebreaker ARA General San Martin participated in its construction during the Antarctic campaign of 1955–1956. After that, an aerial survey of the entire western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula south of 65º latitude was carried out.
