The Bryan Glacier is a glacier on the Lassiter Coast in the east of the Palmerland on the Antarctic Peninsula . It flows along the eastern flank of the Werner Mountains to the Douglas Glacier , which it reaches at the confluence with the New Bedford Inlet .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it using surveys and aerial photographs by the United States Navy from 1961 to 1967. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1968 after Terry E. Bryan, a glaciologist at Byrd Station in the 1966 Antarctic summer until 1967.
