The Dennistoun Glacier (71°11′S 168°0′E / 71.183°S 168.000°E / -71.183; 168.000 (Dennistoun Glacier)) is a glacier, 50 nautical miles (93 km; 58 mi) long, draining the northern slopes of Mount Black Prince, Mount Royalist and Mount Adam in the Admiralty Mountains of Victoria Land, Antarctica. It flows northwest between the Lyttelton Range and Dunedin Range, turning east on rounding the latter range to enter the sea south of Cape Scott.[1]
