Darwin Glacier (Antarctica)

Glaciers and Ice Formations

The Darwin Glacier is a large glacier in Antarctica that flows from the polar plateau eastward between the Darwin Mountains and the Cook Mountains to reach the Ross Ice Shelf. It is often treated together with its major tributary, the Hatherton Glacier, as a single Darwin-Hatherton glacier system.
