Sjogren Glacier (64°14′S 59°0′W) is a glacier 12.5 miles (20 km) long in the south part of Trinity Peninsula, flowing southeast from Detroit Plateau to enter Prince Gustav Channel at the head of Sjögren Inlet, south of the terminus of Boydell Glacier. Discovered in 1903 by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Nordenskjold. He named it Hj. Sjogren Fiord after a patron of the expedition. The true nature of the feature was determined by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1945.

Sjogren Glacier Tongue (64°14′S 58°38′W) was a tongue of ice between 5 and 7 miles wide, extending 15 miles from Sjogren Glacier across Prince Gustav Channel toward Persson Island. Mapped from surveys by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) (1960–61). The glacier tongue was an extension of the flow of Sjogren Glacier from which it took its name. As a result of glacier withdrawal, it has disappeared since at least 1994, with its area now covered by the Prince Gustav Channel.
