Graae Glacier (54°48′S 36°10′W / 54.800°S 36.167°W / -54.800; -36.167) is a glacier 2 miles (3 km) long on the north side of Mount Sabatier, flowing west-southwest to Trollhul in the south part of South Georgia. It was surveyed by the South Georgia Survey (SGS) in the period 1951–57, and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Mogens E.W. Graae of Denmark, who developed sledges for the SGS, 1953–54 and 1955–56.[1][2]
