Blair Glacier (66°45′S 124°32′E) is a glacier draining northward to the western corner of Maury Bay. It was delineated from aerial photographs taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47), and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for James L. Blair, Midshipman on the sloop Peacock during the United States Exploring Expedition (1838–42) under Lieutenant Charles Wilkes.
