Nordenskjöld Glacier
Nordenskjold Glacier is a large glacier flowing north to the head of Cumberland East Bay, on the north coast of South Georgia. It enters the bay between the Greene Peninsula and Barff Peninsula.
The glacier was charted by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition in 1902 and named for Otto Nordenskiöld, leader of the expedition.
