Russell West Glacier (63°40′S58°50′W / 63.667°S 58.833°W / -63.667; -58.833 (Russell West Glacier)) is a glacier, 11 nautical miles (20 km; 13 mi) long and 4 nautical miles (7.4 km; 4.6 mi) wide, which lies immediately north of Detroit Plateau and flows from Mount Canicula westward into Bone Bay, on the north side of Trinity Peninsula. This glacier together with Russell East Glacier, which flows eastward into Prince Gustav Channel on the south side of Trinity Peninsula, form a through glacier across the north part of Antarctic Peninsula.[1]
