Geography

The Bonsall Islands are a chain of islands, islets and rocks at the southern end of Peabody Bay, east of Dallas Bay. They are located off Cape Agassiz to the SW of the McGary Islands. These small islands line the shore, which is deeply indented, for approximately 10 km.[2]

The islands are named after Amos Bonsall of the Second Grinnell Expedition.[3]
