Wessbecher Glacier


Wessbecher Glacier is a glacier about 7 nautical miles long, draining southeast from Mount Inderbitzen and south from Mount Mullen between Peristera Peak, Lishness Peak and Stikal Peak on the main ridge of Sentinel Range on the west and Marze Peak in Petvar Heights on the east, in the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica.
The glacier was first mapped by United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1957–59. It was named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Howard O. Wessbecher, a member of the winter party at McMurdo Sound, 1956, who was representative for the establishing of the South Pole Station.
