McCleary Glacier
McCleary Glacier () is a broad glacier about long, draining southward into Darwin Glacier, Antarctica, just west of Tentacle Ridge. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from tellurometer surveys and Navy air photos, 1959–63, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for George McCleary, a public information officer on the staff of the U.S. Antarctic Projects Officer (USAPO) (1959–61), whose labors helped to start the Bulletin of the USAPO.
Tentacle Ridge
Tentacle Ridge () is a long partially ice-free ridge lying south of Mount Longhurst, extending from the mouth of McCleary Glacier southeast along the north side of Darwin Glacier. The descriptive name was given by the Darwin Glacier Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58).
