The Glee Glacier is a small glacier in the Royal Society Range of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . It is bordered by the two branches of the Dismal Ridge and flows east to the Roaring Valley .
Participants in a campaign from 1960 to 1961 as part of New Zealand's Victoria University's Antarctic Expeditions made the name. Name factor was the fact that at least temporarily visible among the then poor visibility glacier to her delight ( English glee ) provided a landmark in the commission of this area.
