Gough Glacier (84°42′S 171°35′W / 84.700°S 171.583°W / -84.700; -171.583) is an Antarctic glacier about 25 nautical miles (50 km) long, flowing from the northern slopes of the Prince Olav Mountains and the base of the Lillie Range and trending northward to the Ross Ice Shelf, between the Gabbro Hills and the Bravo Hills. It was named by the Southern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1963–64) for A.L. Gough, surveyor of the party.[1]
