It flows from the southeastern slopes of the Forbidden Plateau in a southeastern direction between the Metlichina Ridge and the Jordanow-Nunatak to Borima Bay , which it reaches north of Furen Point .
British scientists mapped it in 1976. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2012 after the town of Minsuchar in southern Bulgaria .
