The Crawford Glacier is a glacier in the north of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . It flows from the eastern slopes of the Explorers Range in the Bowers Mountains in an easterly direction to the Lillie Glacier , which it reaches south of the Platypus Ridge ridge .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it on the basis of its own measurements and with the help of aerial photographs of the United States Navy between 1960 and 1965. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1970 after the biologist Douglas I. Crawford, who in 1965 at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station as Construction worker was active.
