Garwood Glacier is a glacier occupying the northwest part of Garwood Valley, in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was first mapped by the British National Antarctic Expedition (1901–04), but was not named until 1911, when Thomas Griffith Taylor of the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13, named it for Edmund J. Garwood, professor of geology and mineralogy at the University of London.
Jaburg Glacier is a broad glacier draining westward between the Dufek Massif and the Cordiner Peaks in the Pensacola Mountains of Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66. The glacier was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Lieutenant Conrad J. Jaburg, U.S. Navy, a helicopter pilot with the Ellsworth Station winter party, 1957.
Ahlmann Ridge, also known as Ahlmannryggen, is a broad, mainly ice-covered ridge, about 110 km (70 mi) long, surmounted by scattered, low peaks. It rises between Schytt Glacier and Jutulstraumen Glacier and extends from Borg Massif northward to Fimbul Ice Shelf in Queen Maud Land. The area was first photographed from aircraft of the Third German Antarctic Expedition (1938–39) and peaks in this vicinity were roughly plotted. The Stein Nunataks and Witte Peaks, named by the German Antarctic Expedition, appear to coincide with the northeast part of the Ahlmann Ridge. The feature was mapped in detail from surveys and air photos by the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (NBSAE) (1949–1952) and air photos by the Norwegian expedition (1958–59). Named for Hans Wilhelmsson Ahlmann, chairman of the Swedish committee for the NBSAE.
The New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) describes a series of scientific explorations of the continent Antarctica. The expeditions were notably active throughout the 1950s and 1960s.
Rainbow Glacier is in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated immediately to the east of Rainbow Peak at an elevation between 8,500 feet (2,600 m) and 8,000 feet (2,400 m) above sea level. The glacier covers an area of approximately 287 acres (1.16 km2) and has visible crevasses in satellite imagery. Rainbow Glacier has shown modest retreat compared to other glaciers in Glacier National Park, and lost just over 9 percent of its surface area between 1966 and 2005.
Sexton Glacier is located in the U.S. state of Montana in Glacier National Park. The glacier is situated in a cirque north of Going-to-the-Sun Mountain and on the southeast slope of Matahpi Peak at an elevation between 8,000 feet (2,400 m) and 7,000 feet (2,100 m) above sea level. The glacier covers an area of approximately 68 acres (0.28 km2) and lost over 30 percent of its surface area between 1966 and 2005.
Two Ocean Glacier is in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated on the west side Continental Divide below Vulture Peak at an average elevation of 8,400 feet (2,600 m) above sea level. As of 2005, Two Ocean Glacier consisted of numerous ice patches covering a total of 67 acres (0.27 km2) and is more than 35 percent smaller than it was in 1966.
Vulture Glacier is in Glacier National Park, U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated just south of Vulture Peak at an average elevation of 8,412 feet (2,564 m) above sea level. Between 1966 and 2005, Vulture Glacier lost over 50 percent of its surface area.
Beartooth Glacier is in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated in a cirque northeast of Beartooth Mountain at an average elevation of 10,500 feet (3,200 m) above sea level.
Fissure Glacier is located in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated east of Lowary Peak in the Mission Range.
Fendorf Glacier is a broad glacier draining from the eastern slopes of the Gifford Peaks and flowing north to merge with Dobbratz Glacier, in the Heritage Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from ground surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1961–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lieutenant Commander James E. Fendorf, U.S. Navy, a pilot with Squadron VX-6 during Operation Deep Freeze 1966.
Hudman Glacier is a glacier draining south of Mount Landolt between Marze Peak and Miller Peak in Petvar Heights at the south end of the Sentinel Range, in the Ellsworth Mountains of Antarctica, flowing south-southeast to Minnesota Glacier. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1957–59, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Captain Rayburn A. Hudman, United States Marine Corps, who died in the crash of a Lockheed P2V-2n Neptune, modified for extreme range, flying in sub zero temperatures and Ski equipped for landing on the Ice runways at McMurdo Sound Antarctica on October 18, 1956.
Henderson Glacier is a glacier approximately 7 nautical miles long in the Enterprise Hills of the Heritage Range, Antarctica. It flows northeast from Schoeck Peak and Hoinkes Peak to enter Union Glacier just east of Mount Rossman. Henderson Glacier was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos 1961–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Felix E. Henderson, a United States Antarctic Research Program meteorologist at Eights Station in 1965.
Granite Glacier is located in the US state of Montana. The glacier is situated in the Beartooth Mountains at an elevation of 11,000 feet (3,400 m) above sea level and is on the north slope of Granite Peak, the highest summit in Montana. The glacier covers approximately 40 acres (0.16 km2).
Hidden Glacier is located in the US state of Montana. The glacier is situated in the Beartooth Mountains at an elevation of 10,500 feet (3,200 m), nestled within a cirque between Mount Villard to the east and Glacier Peak to the west. The glacier covers approximately 10 acres (0.040 km2).
Sky Top Glacier is in the Beartooth Mountains in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated at an elevation of 11,600 feet (3,500 m) in a cirque to the west of Granite Peak, the tallest summit in Montana. The glacier covers approximately 25 acres (0.10 km2) and a small proglacial lake is near the glacier terminus.
The Swan Glaciers are in the U.S. state of Montana. Situated around Swan Peak, a total of six to ten small glaciers can be found at an elevation of 8,000 feet (2,400 m) above sea level. The glaciers are in the remote Bob Marshall Wilderness.
Snowshoe Canyon is located in Grand Teton National Park, in the U. S. state of Wyoming. The canyon was formed by glaciers which retreated at the end of the last glacial maximum approximately 15,000 years ago, leaving behind a U-shaped valley. Snowshoe Canyon splits into an upper and lower canyon. The source of the upper canyon is near Talus Lake while the south canyon is situated between Rolling Thunder Mountain to the north and Raynolds, Traverse and Bivouac Peaks to the south. Near the fork of north and south Snowshoe Canyon lies Dudley Lake. The canyon terminus is at Moran Bay on the southwest side of Jackson Lake, below Eagles Rest Peak.
Waldo Glacier is in the U.S. state of Oregon. The glacier is situated in the Cascade Range on the south-southeast slopes of Mount Jefferson. Starting near an elevation of 9,000 ft (2,700 m), the glacier extends down to 7,500 ft (2,300 m). The glacier is named after John B. Waldo, as is Waldo Lake.
Moomaw Glacier is an alpine glacier in Rocky Mountain National Park in the U.S. state of Colorado. Moomaw Glacier is almost 1 mi (1.6 km) northeast of Isolation Peak and the old terminal moraine of the glacier impounds Frigid Lake.
