Remus Glacier

Remus Glacier (68°20′S 66°43′W / 68.333°S 66.717°W / -68.333; -66.717Coordinates: 68°20′S 66°43′W / 68.333°S 66.717°W / -68.333; -66.717) is a glacier, 8 nautical miles (15 km) long, which flows from the north slopes of Mount Lupa northwestward along the northeast side of the Blackwall Mountains into Providence Cove, Neny Fjord, on the west coast of Graham Land. The lower reaches of the glacier were first roughly surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill. Resurveyed in 1948-49 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), who so named it for its association with Romulus Glacier, whose head lies near the head of this glacier.
