'''Calkin Glacier''' ({{Coord|77|45|S|162|16|E|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a [[glacier]] just west of [[Sentinel Peak (Antarctica)|Sentinel Peak]], flowing north from the [[Kukri Hills]] toward the terminus of [[Taylor Glacier]] in [[Victoria Land]]. It was charted by the [[British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13]], under [[Robert Falcon Scott]], and named by the [[Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names]] for [[Parker Calkin]], [[United States Antarctic Research Program]] geologist who made investigations in the area during 1960–61 and 1961–62.
