Bond Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

Bond Glacier is a steep, heavily crevassed glacier in Wilkes Land, Antarctica, west of Ivanoff Head. It flows from the continental ice sheet to Blunt Cove at the head of Vincennes Bay. It was mapped from aerial photographs taken during the 1946-47 U.S. Navy Operation Highjump and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Captain Charles A. Bond, commander of the expedition's Western Group. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
