This Refuge is a resting place where to take shelter in case of bad conditions or any other problematic situations with the weather or navigation. It lays inside the perimeter of Base Orcadas (WAP ARG-15) which is located on Laurie Island where at Cormoràn Point, lies the homonymous refuge of Argentine flag (see pic aside).
Cormoran Refuge is active throughout the year providing support to patrols and biological works.
It was asked if Cormoran Refuge could be a “New Entry” on WAP-WADA Directory; but being located near the Base it could not be considered as a separate entity, unless a specific future HF activation by some willing Hams, providing detailed location, such as the real distance from the Orcadas Base main buildings.
