Ferrar Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

The Ferrar Glacier is a glacier in Antarctica, about 35 nautical miles long, flowing from the plateau of Victoria Land west of the Royal Society Range to New Harbour in McMurdo Sound. Northeast of Knobhead it turns east and joins the Taylor Glacier in Siamese-twin fashion, then continues east along the south side of the Kukri Hills to New Harbor.
