Victory Glacier

Victory Glacier (-63.81667°N, -58.41667°W) is a gently sloping glacier, 8 nmi long, flowing east-southeast from the north end of Detroit Plateau on Trinity Peninsula to Prince Gustav Channel immediately north of Pitt Point. It is bounded by Trakiya Heights to the north and Kondofrey Heights to the south.

Location
Victory Glacier is in Graham Land on the southeast coast of the Trinity Peninsula, which forms the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. The north end of the Detroit Plateau rises above the head of the glacier. It flows east and terminates in Prince Gustav Channel. It is southwest of Russell East Glacier and northeast of Aitkenhead Glacier. Nearby features include Mount Daimler to the north, Mount Reece to the south and Pitt Point at the south end of the glacier's mouth.

Mapping and name
Victory Glacier was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), and so named because the glacier was sighted in the week following the surrender of Japan in World War II, in August 1945.
