Adams Glacier (78°7′S 163°38′E / 78.117°S 163.633°E) is a small glacier immediately south of Miers Glacier in Victoria Land. The heads of Adams and Miers glaciers, both located in the Miers Valley, are separated by a low ridge, and the east end of this ridge is almost completely surrounded by the snouts of the two glaciers, which nearly meet in the bottom of the valley, about 1 mile (1.6 km) above Lake Miers, into which they drain. It was named by the of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58) after Lieutenant (later Sir) Jameson Adams, second in command of the shore party of the British Antarctic Expedition (1907–09), who was one of the men to accompany Ernest Shackleton to within 97 miles (156 km) of the South Pole.

  • Adams Glacier (78°7′S 163°38′E / 78.117°S 163.633°E) is a small glacier immediately south of Miers Glacier in Victoria Land. The heads of Adams and Miers glaciers, both located in the Miers Valley, are separated by a low ridge, and the east end of this ridge is almost completely surrounded by the snouts of the two glaciers, which nearly meet in the bottom of the valley, about 1 mile (1.6 km) above Lake Miers, into which they drain. It was named by the of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58) after Lieutenant (later Sir) Jameson Adams, second in command of the shore party of the British Antarctic Expedition (1907–09), who was one of the men to accompany Ernest Shackleton to within 97 miles (156 km) of the South Pole. The Keyhole, a narrow ice-carved defile, separates the Adams Glacier from Hidden Valley. It provides the only low-level entrance to Hidden Valley, and is the key to easy passage between Lake Miers and Ward Glacier. Named by the New Zealand Victoria University's Antarctic Expeditions (VUWAE) who used it on several occasions during the summer of 1960-61. Lake Keyhole is a very small lake on the south, or Hidden Valley side of The Keyhole. It was named by VUWAE for its proximity to The Keyhole. (en)
  • Der Adams-Gletscher ist ein kleiner Gletscher unmittelbar südlich des Miers-Gletschers im ostantarktischen Viktorialand. Die Entstehungszonen beider Gletscher werden durch einen niedrigen Bergkamm getrennt, während dieser durch die unteren Abschnitte beider Gletscher komplett umgeben ist, die beide in den Lake Miers münden. Die neuseeländische geodätische Mannschaft der Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1955–1958) benannte den Gletscher nach Jameson Adams (1880–1962), stellvertretender Leiter der Nimrod-Expedition (1907–1909) unter dem britischen Polarforscher Ernest Shackleton.

  • Adams Glacier är en glaciär i Antarktis. Den ligger i Östantarktis. Nya Zeeland gör anspråk på området. Adams Glacier ligger 668 meter över havet. Terrängen runt Adams Glacier är lite bergig. Den högsta punkten i närheten är Holiday Peak, 1 500 meter över havet, 2,0 kilometer norr om Adams Glacier. Trakten är obefolkad utan några samhällen i området. (sv)
