Hockey Cirque

Hockey Cirque (83°17′S 156°30′E) is a glacial cirque 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) wide along the east wall of Ascent Glacier in the Miller Range of Antarctica. It was so named by the Ohio State University Geological Party, 1967–68, because the cirque was the scene of a game of ice hockey.[1]
