Pare Glacier
Paré Glacier is a glacier 7 nautical miles long and 1 nautical mile wide, draining the northeast slopes of Stribog Mountains, and flowing east and then northeast into the head of Bouquet Bay on the northeast side of Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica.
The feature was shown on an Argentine government chart in 1953, but not named. Photographed by Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd in 1956–57, and mapped from these photos in 1959. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Ambroise Paré, French surgeon who first taught the importance of clean wound dressings, improved operative techniques and fracture treatment.
