Sheehan Glacier


Sheehan Glacier is a steep and extremely broken glacier draining from the vicinity of Miller Peak in the Explorers Range, Bowers Mountains, and entering the Rennick Glacier just south of Alvarez Glacier. Named by the northern party of New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition, 1963–64, for Maurice Sheehan, mountaineer who wintered at Scott Base in 1963, and was a field party assistant with the expedition.
