MacKlintok Island, Arctic island in Franz Josef Land, Russia
McClintock Island extends across 612 square kilometers of land mass with dimensions of 31 kilometers in length and 25 kilometers in width.
The Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition discovered this territory in March 1874 and named it after Irish Arctic explorer Francis Leopold McClintock.
The island represents a testament to Russian polar research and maintains its status as part of the greater Franz Josef Land territorial collection.
The island operates in the UTC+04:00 time zone and remains uninhabited due to extreme Arctic conditions throughout the year.
Cape Greely marks the northernmost point of the island while Cape Oppolzer defines its southeastern boundary at 521 meters above sea level.
