Marston Glacier

Marston Glacier (76°54′S 162°30′E / 76.9°S 162.5°E / -76.9; 162.5) is a glacier draining eastward from Mount Marston and Doublefinger Peak and entering Granite Harbour between Dreikanter Head and the Kar Plateau. The New Zealand Northern Survey Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58) ascended this glacier en route to Mount Marston in October 1957. They named it for its proximity to that mountain.
