History

Name appears on a 1906 map of Fourth Glacier by the Canadian section of International Boundary Commission (IBC), published by Tarr and Martin (1914, fig 15). The name was probably derived from Beasley Glacier, the name given Fourth Glacier by Eliot Blackwelder U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in 1906.
