{{Short description|Glacier in Antarctica}}
'''Prospect Glacier''' ({{coord|69|32|S|67|20|W|type:glacier_region:AQ|display=inline,title}}) is a [[glacier]] between [[Kinnear Mountains]] and [[Mayer Hills]], flowing north into [[Forster Ice Piedmont]] on the west coast of [[Antarctic Peninsula]]. It was first roughly surveyed in 1936 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill. In 1954 the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) gave the name [[Prospect Pass]] to a [[mountain pass|col]] between [[Eureka Glacier]] and the glacier here described. During resurvey of the area by the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) in 1958, the col was found to be an indeterminate feature, while this glacier is well marked and requires a name.
