Charybdis Glacier

Charybdis Glacier (70°25′S 67°30′E / 70.417°S 67.5°E / -70.417; 67.5) is a large glacier which drains northeast between the Porthos Range and the Aramis Range of the Prince Charles Mountains to the west side of the Amery Ice Shelf. It was discovered by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions southern party led by W.G. Bewsher in December 1956 and named after Homer's Charybdis because of the considerable difficulty experienced in traversing this region due to the glacier.
