Razboyna Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

Razboyna Glacier is a glacier about 3 nautical miles (5.6 kilometers) long and 1 nautical mile (1.9 kilometers) wide in the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains in Ellsworth Land, Antarctica. It lies in Petvar Heights on the range southeastern flank, draining the northern slopes of Bagra Peak and flowing northeast before it exits the range north of Long Peak. It was named for the settlements called Razboyna in northeastern and southeastern Bulgaria, and its present position was established by United States mapping in 1988.
