The McLean Glacier is a glacier in the north of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . It flows north of Mount Hemphill in the southwestern part of the Anare Mountains in a westerly direction to the lower section of the Ebbe Glacier , which it reaches immediately south of the Beaman Glacier .
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1964 after Kenneth S. McLean, who was involved in surveying the area around the glacier as a topography engineer for the United States Geological Survey between 1962 and 1963.
