Balish Glacier is an 18 nautical mile long glacier flowing north from the Soholt Peaks in the Heritage Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica, entering the Splettstoesser Glacier just northeast of Springer Peak. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from 1961-66 surveys and U.S. Navy aerial photographs, and named for Commander Daniel Balish of Navy Squadron VX-6.
