Glimpse Glacier

Glimpse Glacier (78°16′S 162°46′E) is an alpine glacier composed of two segments, separated by an icefall, which flow northeast from the névé in the area between Mount Kempe and Mount Huggins, Antarctica. It joins Pipecleaner Glacier 2 nautical miles (4 km) south of the confluence of the latter with Radian Glacier. It was so named by the Victoria University of Wellington Antarctic Expedition, 1960–61, because it was up this glacier that the geologists traversed to the Koettlitz–Skelton divide at the ridge crest in order to gain their only glimpse of the polar plateau in January 1961.
