Leppard Glacier (65°58′S 62°30′W / 65.967°S 62.500°W) is a large valley glacier draining east between the Aristotle Mountains and Voden Heights, and flowing into Scar Inlet north of Ishmael Peak, on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The glacier was first seen from the air and photographed in part by Hubert Wilkins on December 20, 1928, and was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1955. It is now clear that, on the photographic evidence of his outward flight, Wilkins gave the name "Crane Channel" to this glacier, and that on his return flight he photographed what is now accepted as Crane Glacier, perhaps thinking that it was the same feature. Since Crane Glacier has been retained for the northern of these glaciers photographed by Wilkins, the UK Antarcti

  • Der Leppard-Gletscher ist ein großer Talgletscher an der Oskar-II.-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Er fließt in östlicher Richtung zum Scar Inlet, das er südlich des Ishmael Peak erreicht. Sein Entdecker ist der australische Polarforscher Hubert Wilkins bei einem Überflug am 20. Dezember 1928. Der Gletscher wurde 1955 vom Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) kartiert. Wilkins hatte ihn ursprünglich als Crane Channel benannt im Glauben, dieser gehöre zum System des weiter nördlich gelegenen Crane-Gletschers. Das UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee hob diesen Irrtum auf und benannte den Gletscher 1957 nach dem britischen Geodäten (1932–1998), der an den Vermessungsarbeiten dieses Gebiets durch den FIDS beteiligt war.
