Mjell Glacier is a glacier about 9 nautical miles long, flowing northeast between Mount Bergersen and Isachsen Mountain in the Sor Rondane Mountains of Antarctica. Norwegian cartographers mapped it in 1957 from aerial photographs taken during the U.S. Navy Operation Highjump of 1946-47 and originally named it Mjellbreen.
