Utstikkar Glacier [SEP] continent
Utstikkar Glacier
Utstikkar Glacier () is a broad glacier flowing north from the vicinity of Moyes Peak in Antarctica and terminating in Utstikkar Glacier Tongue between Utstikkar Bay to the east and Allison Bay to the west.
The glacier was mapped and named Utstikkarbreen (the out-jutting glacier) by Norwegian cartographers working from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition in January–February 1937.

Utstikkar Bay
Utstikkar Bay is a bay 4 miles (6 km) wide, indenting the coast immediately east of Utstikkar Glacier. It was first mapped by Norwegian cartographers from aerial photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and was so named by them because the bay is contiguous with Utstikkar Glacier.
