The Henry moraine ( Norwegian Henrysanden ) is a small moraine in the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . It is located in the Conrad Mountains on the northwest side of Bjerkenuten .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named them, mapped them on the basis of aerial photographs and measurements of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960). It is named after Henry Bjerke (1919–1970), who worked as a mechanic on a research trip from 1957 to 1959.
