Rubble Glacier

Rubble Glacier is an ice-filled valley in the Palmer Land region of the Antarctic Peninsula.[1] It is surrounded by Giza Peak and the ridge connecting it to Baily Ridge to the north and Elephant Ridge to the south. Rubble Glacier is referred to as "Man-Pack Glacier" in scientific reports of the early 1960s, but is now descriptively referred to as Rubble Glacier or sometimes as "Louis Glacier".
