Narrative

A valley glacier feeding the Beardmore Glacier from a névé between Mt Kirkpatrick and Mt Lockwood. It flows through a narrow gap in the foothills and descends in icefalls into the main stream of the glacier. The name "Garrard Glacier" was used by Scott on what was originally Shackleton's "Bingley Glacier". This area was surveyed by the Southern Party of the NZGSAE, 1961-62, which has discarded Scott's name since Shackleton had the priority, and the name Garrard Glacier is therefore re-positioned on this previously un-named glacier. It is named for Apsley Cherry-Garrard, a member of the BAE, 1910-13.
