Minnehaha Icefalls

Minnehaha Icefalls (77°2′S 162°24′E) is a small, heavily crevassed icefall descending the steep western slopes of Mount England and forming a southern tributary to New Glacier, close west of its terminus at Granite Harbour, Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was charted and named by a party of the British Antarctic Expedition (1910–13) led by Thomas Griffith Taylor. The name, after Minnehaha, was suggested by Frank Debenham.[1]
