In the north-central part of the Sentinel Range in the Ellsworth Mountains, it flows northwest of the Patton Glacier from the eastern slopes of Mount Giovinetto and the northern slopes of Evans Peak in a north-easterly direction and flows north of Mount Jumper into the Ellen Glacier .
American scientists mapped it in 1988. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2010 after the rebel leader Rumjana Wojwoda from the 19th century .
