Ice Gate Glacier

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ice Gate Glacier (64°54′S 62°45′WCoordinates: 64°54′S 62°45′W) is a narrow hanging glacier, tributary to Astudillo Glacier, between rock spurs on the west slope of Dallmeyer Peak, Danco Coast. Named by the Polish Antarctic Expedition, about 1992, probably from the gatelike appearance of the spurs at the junction of the two glaciers.
