Skelton Neve


Skelton Névé (78°20′S 160°0′E / 78.333°S 160.000°E / -78.333; 160.000Coordinates: 78°20′S 160°0′E / 78.333°S 160.000°E / -78.333; 160.000) is the immense névé of the Skelton Glacier, lying on the west side of the Royal Society Range. Almost circular in outline, it is about 40 miles in diameter and has an area of about 1,300 square miles. It was surveyed by New Zealand parties of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58), who named it for its relationship to the Skelton Glacier.
