Herbertson Glacier

Herbertson Glacier (77°43′S 163°49′E) is a small alpine glacier which drains from the cliff that forms the southern margin of New Harbour, about 5 nautical miles (10 km) west-southwest of Butter Point, Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was named by the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13, presumably for British geographer A.J. Herbertson of Oxford University.[1]
