MacCormick Fjord, together with
Robertson Fjord close to the west, is one of the two main indentations of the northern side of the
Murchison Sound. It runs in a roughly NE/SW direction east of
Cape Robertson, with its mouth north of
Cape Cleveland, beyond the western end of the
Inglefield Gulf.
Piulip Nunaa is the peninsula that separates this fjord from
Bowdoin Fjord to the east and MacCormick Fjord forms the peninsula's western coastline. Most of the fjord's shores are beach. The
Sun Glacier discharges from the
Greenland Ice Sheet at the head of the MacCormick Fjord and its terminus is a high wall; the smaller
Scarlet Heart Glacier has its terminus on the eastern shore of the inner fjord, about from its mouth. ==See also==
