Bertoglio Glacier (79°18′S 160°20′E / 79.300°S 160.333°E / -79.300; 160.333) is a glacier 7 nautical miles (13 km) long, flowing from the Conway Range eastward between Cape Lankester and Hoffman Point to the Ross Ice Shelf. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from tellurometer surveys and Navy air photos, 1959–63, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Commander Lloyd W. Bertoglio, U.S. Navy, commander of the McMurdo Station winter party, 1960.[1]
