The Ogilvie Glacier is a 25 km long valley glacier in the Elias range in Yukon ( Canada ).
The nutrient area of the Ogilvie Glacier is west of the Mount Logan massif , about 17 km west-northwest of the main peak of Mount Logan. From there it initially flows west, but soon turns north. The glacier is flanked by Mount Johansen in the east and Ogilvie Peak in the south. The Mussell Glacier meets the Ogilvie Glacier on the left. This eventually reaches the Logan Glacier flowing west.
