Paget Glacier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paget Glacier () is a glacier in South Georgia, 4 miles (6 km) long and 1 mile (1.6 km) wide, which flows northeast from the north slopes of Mount Paget into the west side of Nordenskjold Glacier. Roughly surveyed in 1928-29 by a German expedition under Kohl-Larsen, and resurveyed in 1951-52 by the SGS. The name, which is derived from nearby Mount Paget, was given by the SGS, 1951-52.
