'''Gruening Glacier''' ({{coord|71|52|S|61|55|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a broad [[glacier]] descending southeast between steep rock walls to the northwest part of [[Hilton Inlet]], on the east coast of [[Palmer Land]], Antarctica. It was discovered by the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS) in a flight down this glacier from East Base on December 30, 1940, and was named for [[Ernest H. Gruening]], Director of the Division of Territories and Island Possessions, [[U.S. Department of the Interior]], during the inception of the USAS, and a member of the Executive Committee by which the USAS was directed; later [[List of United States Senators from Alaska|U.S. Senator from Alaska]].<ref name=gnis/> |
