}Aitkenhead Glacier (-63.95°N -102°W) is a long glacier flowing east-southeast from the Detroit Plateau, Graham Land, into Prince Gustav Channel (close north of Alectoria Island).
Aitkenhead Glacier is in Graham Land on the south coast of the Trinity Peninsula, which forms the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula.It descends in a southeast direction from the Detroit Plateau to enter Prince Gustav Channel opposite Alectoria Island.Nearby features include Tufft Nunatak to the north and Simpson Nunatak and Mount Roberts to the south.
Aitkenhead Glacier was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) (1960–61).It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Neil Aitkenhead, a FIDS geologist at Hope Bay (1959–60).
Nearby features include, from west to east:
-64°N -107°W. A dark, mostly ice-free rock peak with a flat, sloping top, high, which is isolated from the Detroit Plateau to the west and lies south of Aitkenhead Glacier. First charted by the FIDS, 1945, and named for D.W. Roberts, Manager of the Falkland Islands Company in 1945, who was of assistance to the expedition.
-63.9161°N -58.8478°W.An ice-covered buttress rising to high on the northeast side of Detroit Plateau. Situated northwest of Baley Nunatak. Precipitous and partly ice-free southwest slopes. Surmounting Aitkenhead Glacier to the southwest and south. Named after Mancho Peak in Rila mountain, Southwestern Bulgaria.
-63.9456°N -58.7817°W.A rocky hill rising to high on the north side of Aitkenhead Glacier. Situated in the southeast foothills of Mancho Buttress, northwest of Hitar Petar Nunatak and north-northwest of Mount Roberts. Named after the settlement of Baley in Northwestern Bulgaria.
-63.9661°N -58.7033°W.A rocky hill rising to high on the coast of Prince Gustav Channel, next south of the terminus of Aitkenhead Glacier. Situated northeast of Mount Roberts, southeast of Baley Nunatak and south of Tuff Nunatak. Named after the Bulgarian folkloric hero Hitar Petar ("Sly Peter").
-63.9167°N -100°W. A small nunatak southwest of Mount Bradley.Named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Ronald W. Tufft of FIDS, a member of the reconnaissance party for the Detroit Plateau journey in February 1957.
