'''Barcus Glacier''' ({{Coord|74|15|S|62|0|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a [[glacier]] in the [[Hutton Mountains]] that drains east-southeast, to the north of [[Mount Nash]] and [[Mount Light (Antarctica)|Mount Light]], into [[Keller Inlet]] in [[Palmer Land]]. It was mapped by the [[United States Geological Survey]] from ground surveys and from [[U.S. Navy]] air photos, 1961–67, and named by the [[Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names]] for [[James R. Barcus]], ionospheric physics researcher at [[Byrd Station]] in the summers of 1966–67 and 1967–68.
