Urdoviza Glacier is a glacier on western Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica, lying east of the northern part of the Etar Snowfield and north of Medven Glacier. It extends about 1.5 nautical miles in each of the east-west and north-south directions, bounded by the eastern slopes of the Oryahovo Heights, and drains eastward into Stoyanov Cove in Hero Bay between Aguero Point and Sandanski Point. It was mapped by Bulgarian surveys in 2005 and 2009. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
