Description
(see definition):
A glacier descending sharply on the W side of Adare Peninsula to discharge into Robertson Bay 4 mi N of Nameless Glacier, in Victoria Land. First charted by the British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE), 1898-1900, under C.E. Borchgrevink. The feature was so named by Borchgrevink because southerly gales at Cape Adare were always heralded by a cloud of snow sweeping over this glacier into Robertson Bay.
