Rubble Glacier is an ice-filled valley located in the Palmer Land region of the Antarctic Peninsula.[1] It is surrounded by Giza Peak to the north, the ridge connecting it to Baily Ridge, and Elephant Ridge to the south. Rubble Glacier was previously referred to as "Man-Pack Glacier" in scientific reports from the early 1960s, but is now commonly known as Rubble Glacier or sometimes as "Louis Glacier".
