Kjerulf Glacier
The Kjerulf Glacier is a glacier 7 nautical miles long flowing west from Mount Sugartop to the east side of Newark Bay, on the south coast of South Georgia.
The glacier was mapped by Olaf Holtedahl during his visit to South Georgia in 1927-28, and named by him for Theodor Kjerulf (1825-1888), Norwegian geologist and Professor of Mineralogy at the University of Christiania.
