Entrikin Glacier (80 49a S 160 0a Ei ? / i ?80.817 S 160 Ei ? / -80.817; 160) is a broad sweeping glacier flowing eastward from the Churchill Mountains into Matterson Inlet. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Lieutenant Commander Joseph W. Entrikin, U.S. Navy, pilot with Squadron VX-6 during U.S. Navy Operation Deepfreeze I, 1955-56.A glacier is a large persistent body of ice that forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation (melting and sublimation) over many years, often centuries. At least 0.1 kmA in area and 50 m thick, but often much larger, a glacier slowly deforms and flows due to stresses induced by its weight. Crevasses, seracs, and other distinguishing features of a glacier are due to its flow.
