McGregor Glacier
McGregor Glacier (85°8′S 174°50′W) is a tributary glacier, 14 nautical miles (26 km) long and 3 nautical miles (6 km) wide, draining the southwest slopes of the Prince Olav Mountains in Antarctica, and flowing west to enter Shackleton Glacier just north of the Cumulus Hills. It was named by the Southern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1961–62) for V.R. McGregor, a geologist with that party.[1]
