Stancomb-Wills Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

The Stancomb-Wills Glacier is a large glacier that flows into the eastern Weddell Sea south of Lyddan Island, Antarctica. It was discovered during a U.S. Navy LC-130 flight over the coast on November 5, 1967, plotted by the United States Geological Survey from photographs taken at that time, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in 1969.
