Mount Adamson . A peak, high, rising |east-northeast of Mount Hewson. It was named by the northern party of
New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE), 1965–66, for R. Adamson, a
geologist with this party.
Mount Hewson . A bluff-type mountain, high, standing west-southwest of Mount Adamson. It was named by the southern party of NZGSAE, 1962–63, for R.W. Hewson, leader and surveyor of this party; also a surveyor for the northern party of NZGSAE, 1961-62.

United States Navy air photos, 1955-63. It was named by US-ACAN for Lieutenant Cdt. Willard G. Shafer, (CEC) United States Navy, officer in charge of the nuclear power plant at
McMurdo Station, winter party 1965.
Mount Cavaney . A peak, high, rising just north of the head of Capsize Glacier in Deep Freeze Range. Named by the Northern Party of the NZGSAE, 1965-66, for R.J. Cavaney, geologist with that party.
Mount Levick . A prominent mountain, high, standing at the northwest side of Tourmaline Plateau in the Deep Freeze Range. First charted by the Northern Party of the
British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13 (BrAE), and named for G. Murray Levick, surgeon with the expedition and a member of the Northern Party.
Bloch Peak . A prominent peak in the Deep Freeze Range, between Priestley Glacier and the west part of Tourmaline Plateau. Named by US-ACAN in 1990 after Erich Bloch, Director, National Science Foundation, 1984-90. The Foundation, through its Office of Polar Programs, is responsible for the development of the
United States Antarctic Program.
Tourmaline Plateau . An ice-covered plateau in the central part of the Deep Freeze Range, bounded by the Howard Peaks and the peaks and ridges which trend N-S from Mount Levick, in Victoria Land. So named by the Northern Party of NZGSAE, 1965-66, because of the quantities of tourmaline-granite found there.
Mount Emison . A prominent mountain, high, rising on the west side of Campbell Glacier, just north of the mouth of Bates Glacier, in the Deep Freeze Range. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy air photos, 1955-63. Named by US-ACAN after William B. Emison, biologist at McMurdo Station, 1964-65 and 1965-66 seasons.
Howard Peaks . A line of east–west trending peaks at the south side of Tourmaline Plateau, extending transversely across Deep Freeze Range, in Victoria Land. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy air photos, 1955-63. Named by US-ACAN for Hugh C. Howard, cook at McMurdo Station for four summer seasons, 1963-64 to 1966-67.
Mills Peak . A sharp peak in the Deep Freeze Range, high, standing along the west side of Campbell Glacier between Mount Queensland and the terminus of Bates Glacier. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy air photos, 1955-63. Named by US-ACAN for Peter J. Mills, geologist at McMurdo Station, 1965-66 season.
Mount Queensland . A prominent
mountain, high, standing north of Mount Dickason. It was discovered by the
British National Antarctic Expedition, 1901–04, which named this mountain for the state of
Queensland, Australia, in recognition of the assistance given the expedition by its government.
Mount Burrows . A peak high located west-southwest of Mount Queensland in the Deep Freeze Range. The feature towers high above the lower, east side of Priestley Glacier. Named by the NZ-APC for A.L. Burrows, Scientific Leader at
Scott Base, 1964-65.
Black Ridge . A prominent rock ridge in the Deep Freeze Range, Victoria Land, long and rising to high, forming a divide between the Priestley and Corner Glaciers. First explored by the Northern Party of the BrAE, 1910-13, and so named by them because of its appearance.
Mount Dickason . A prominent mountain, high, at the head of
Boomerang Glacier. It was first mapped by the Northern Party of the
British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13, and named for
Harry Dickason, Royal Navy, a member of the Northern Party.
Mount Keinath . A mountain, high, rising at the east side of the terminus of Boomerang Glacier in Deep Freeze Range. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy air photos, 1955-63. Named by US-ACAN for Gerald E. Keinath, biolab administrator at McMurdo Station, 1965-66 season.
Cape Sastrugi . A sharply projecting point on the west side of Deep Freeze Range, standing northwest of Snowy Point and overlooking the north portion of Nansen Ice Sheet, in Victoria Land. First explored by the Northern Party of the BrAE, 1910-13, and so named by them because of large and extensive sastrugi that impeded the travel of this party in approaching the point.
Snowy Point . A gently sloping point marking the north side of the western portal of Browning Pass in Deep Freeze Range. First explored and given this descriptive name by the Northern Party of the BrAE, 1910-13. ==References==
