Branscomb Glacier is an Antarctic glacier about 11 nautical miles long in the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, flowing west from Vinson Massif into the Nimitz Glacier. Its upper course receives ice from Goodge Col and Jacobsen Valley, and the tributary Roché Glacier joins it near Príncipe de Asturias Peak; the glacier has been a focus of expeditions studying glaciology, ice dynamics, and climate change, and Antarctic Logistics and Expeditions maintains a base camp on it.
