Haefeli Glacier

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haefeli Glacier (67°18′S, 66°23′W) is a glacier, 2 miles (3.2 km) wide and 6 miles (10 km) long, situated at the northwest side of Finsterwalder Glacier and flowing south-southwest toward the head of Lallemand Fjord on the west coast of Graham Land. With Finsterwalder and Klebelsberg Glaciers, its mouth merges with Sharp Glacier where the latter enters the fjord. First surveyed in 1946-47 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) and named by them for Robert Haefeli, Swiss glaciologist.
