Heads in North Branch Norris Glacier, trends 8 mi SE to Grizzly Bar on Taku Inlet, 2.4 mi W of Taku Point and 14 mi NE of Juneau, Coast Mountains.
Probably named in 1886 by navy officers for Dr. Basil Norris, surgeon, U.S. Navy (USN). In 1890 U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS) called it "Windom glacier" for William Windom, 1827-1891, lawyer and statesman, who was congressman and senator from Ohio and Secretary of the Treasury under President Garfield and Harrison. The report by C.W. Wright, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), states that the name "Norris Glacier" represented local usage. Miss E. R. Scidmore (1899, p. 81) gives the Indian name as "Kadishle."
