The Slokutschene Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Злокучене Lednik Slokutschene ) is a 13 km long and 3.5 km wide glacier on the Nordenskjöld Coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . From the Mrahori Saddle it flows north of the Rissimina Glacier , east of the Rogosch Glacier and south of the lower section of the Drygalski Glacier in an easterly direction between the Kyustendil Ridge and the Lovech Heights and flows northwest of the Pedersen Nunatak into the Weddell Sea .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2012 after the localities in western and southern Bulgaria .
