Bertram Glacier courses by the Dyer Plateau of Palmer Land in the British Antarctic Territory. It flows slowly south-westwards into George VI Sound, which separates the continent from Adelaide Island.
This glacier was surveyed by the British Graham Land Expedition in October 1936. It was further surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from Stonington Island in the 1948-49 season, and then named after Dr George Colin Lawder Bertram (1911-2001), a biologist on the British Graham Land Expedition and a member of the sledge party that was the first to travel down George VI Sound, and Director and the Scott Polar Research Institute from 1949 to 1958.
