Utstikkar Glacier (67°33′S 61°20′E / 67.550°S 61.333°E / -67.550; 61.333Coordinates: WikiMiniAtlas
67°33′S 61°20′E / 67.550°S 61.333°E / -67.550; 61.333) is a broad glacier flowing north from the vicinity of Moyes Peak in Antarctica and terminating in Utstikkar Glacier Tongue between Utstikkar Bay to the east and Allison Bay to the west.
The glacier was mapped and named Utstikkarbreen (the out-jutting glacier) by Norwegian cartographers working from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition in January–February 1937.
