Description (see definition): A stagnant glacier occupying the mouth of Wright Valley and coalescing at its E side with Wilson Piedmont Glacier, in Victoria Land. Formerly called Wright Glacier, but that name was amended by the Victoria University's Antarctic Expeditions (VUWAE) (1958-59) to distinguish this glacier from Wright Upper Glacier at the head of Wright Valley. Originally named by the British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE) (1910-13) for Charles (later Sir Charles) S. Wright, physicist with the expedition.
