Robinson Glacier
Robinson Glacier (66°30′S 107°16′E / 66.500°S 107.267°E) is a channel glacier flowing to the Antarctic coast between Merritt Island and Reist Rocks. It was mapped in 1955 by G.D. Blodgett from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47), and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for R.P. Robinson, Purser's Steward of the ship Vincennes on the United States Exploring Expedition under Lieutenant Charles Wilkes, 1838–42.
