Blades Glacier

Blades Glacier (77°38′S 153°0′W) is a glacier flowing east from the snow-covered saddle just north of La Gorce Peak, Alexandra Mountains. It merges with Dalton Glacier on the north side of Edward VII Peninsula. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for William Robert Blades who served as navigator during U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47) and Operation Deep Freeze (1955–59).
