Tulaczyk Glacier ( WikiMiniAtlas
78°35′S 85°53′W / 78.583°S 85.883°W / -78.583; -85.883) is a steep valley glacier draining the west slope of Vinson Massif southwest of Príncipe de Asturias Peak, and descending between Cairns Glacier and Zapol Glacier in the Sentinel Range, Antarctica. The glacier flows southwestward and leaving the range, together with Cairns Glacier joins Nimitz Glacier west of Hodges Knoll and southeast of Klenova Peak. It was named by US-ACAN (2006) after Slawek M. Tulaczyk, Earth Sciences, University of California, Santa Cruz; USAP researcher of West Antarctic ice streams from 1998.
