Hansenbreen

Hansenbreen is a glacier long, flowing north along the west side of Mount [Nils Larsen] in the Sør [Rondane Mountains] of Antarctica. It was roughly mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars [Christensen Expedition], 1936–37, and remapped by them in greater detail in 1957 from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, 1946–47. It was named for Hans [Edvard Hansen], a Norwegian cartographer who compiled these and other maps for Norwegian Antarctic expeditions.
