The Dater Glacier is a steep valley glacier in Antarctica, 38 kilometres (24 mi) long and from 1.6 km to 4.8 km (1 to 3 mi) wide, flowing NE in a sinuous course from the eastern slopes of Vinson Massif to Rutford Ice Stream which borders the eastern flank of the Sentinel Range, Ellsworth Mountains. At the lower end the Dater Glacier coalesces with the terminus of the Ellen Glacier, the two emerging from the Sentinel Range as one stream just north of Flowers Hills.

  • The Dater Glacier is a steep valley glacier in Antarctica, 38 kilometres (24 mi) long and from 1.6 km to 4.8 km (1 to 3 mi) wide, flowing NE in a sinuous course from the eastern slopes of Vinson Massif to Rutford Ice Stream which borders the eastern flank of the Sentinel Range, Ellsworth Mountains. At the lower end the Dater Glacier coalesces with the terminus of the Ellen Glacier, the two emerging from the Sentinel Range as one stream just north of Flowers Hills. Discovered by USN Squadron VX-6 on photographic flights of Dec. 14-15, 1959, and mapped from these photographs by United States Geological Survey. Named by US-ACAN after Henry M. Dater, historian on the staff of the U.S. Antarctic Projects Officer and the U.S. Naval Support Force Antarctica.
  • Le glacier Dater est un glacier d'environ 38 km de long, situé au nord-est du massif Vinson, le plus haut point de l'Antarctique. Il s'écoule dans les monts Ellsworth. Découvert en décembre 1959, il a été nommé par l'Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names d'après l'historien américain Henry M. Dater.
