Narrative

A broad depression glacier located N of Stevenson Bluff and Mount Steele in the Wilson Hills. It drains NE into the E part of Gillett Ice Shelf. So named by the northern party of NZGSAE, 1963-64, because of an airdrop of extra comforts from an aircraft which carried the Governor-General of New Zealand over this area.
