The glacier is bounded by Friesland Ridge to the northwest, Levski Ridge to the northeast and Peshev Ridge to the southeast, and flows southwestwards into the head of Brunow Bay. The feature was named by the UK Antarctic Place-names Committee in 1958 for Robert Macy, Master of the brig Aurora, one of the fleet of American sealers from New York which visited the South Shetland Islands in 1820–21. LocationThe glacier's midpoint is located at {{Coord|62|41|20|S|60|08|10|W|type:glacier|display=inline,title}} (British mapping in 1968, and Bulgarian in 2005 and 2009). See also
