Lunde Glacier (71°53′S 6°15′E / 71.883°S 6.250°E) is a glacier about 25 nautical miles (46 km) long flowing northwest between Håhellerskarvet and Jøkulkyrkja Mountain in the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains on the Princess Astrid Coast of Queen Maud Land.[1]
The glacier was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from surveys and air photos by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–60) and named for T. Lunde, a glaciologist with the Norwegian expedition (1956–58).[1][2]
