Montgomerie Glacier

Montgomerie Glacier (83°47′S 166°55′E) is a narrow tributary glacier, 10 nautical miles (19 km) long, flowing north along the west side of Hampton Ridge in the Queen Alexandra Range of Antarctica to enter Lennox-King Glacier. It was named by the Northern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition of 1961–62 for John Montgomerie, assistant surveyor of that party.[1]
