Mount Blair is a small but conspicuous mountain, 2,120 metres (6,960 ft) high, standing 6 nautical miles (11 km) northwest of Mount Weihaupt in the Outback Nunataks, Victoria Land, Antarctica. The topographical feature was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–64, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Terence T. Blair, former biologist who contributed to his biological studies at McMurdo Station, Hut Point Peninsula, Ross Island, during the Summer of 1966–67. The mountain lies on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
The Gruber Mountains are a small group of mountains consisting of a main massif and several rocky outliers, forming the northeast portion of the Wohlthat Mountains in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. They were discovered and plotted from air photos by the Third German Antarctic Expedition (GerAE), 1938–39, under Alfred Ritscher. The mountains were remapped by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60, who named them for Otto von Gruber, the German cartographer who compiled maps of this area from air photos taken by the GerAE. This feature is not to be confused with "Gruber-Berge," an unidentified toponym applied by the GerAE in northern the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains.
Cutcliffe Peak is a peak just south of Mount Mervyn in the Porthos Range of the Prince Charles Mountains. It was plotted from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) air photos of 1965, and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for M.A. Cutcliffe, an electrical fitter at Mawson Station in 1966, who assisted with the ANARE survey program.
Mount Jennings is a peak rising to about 2,800 metres (9,200 ft) immediately south of Mount Roy in the Barker Range of the Victory Mountains, in Victoria Land, Antarctica.

Mount Grimsley is a small mountain 1 nautical mile (2 km) southwest of Mount Abbs in the Aramis Range of the Prince Charles Mountains, Antarctica. It was plotted from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions air photos taken in 1956 and 1960, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for S.W. Grimsley, technical officer (ionosphere) at Wilkes Station in 1963.
Giaever Glacier is a glacier flowing northwest between Mount Kerckhove de Denterghem and Mount Lahaye in the Belgica Mountains of Antarctica.

It was named for Robin de Quetterville Gordon, third in command and physicist with the NBSAE.
The Hamrane Heights are ice-free heights between Skarsdalen Valley and Hei Glacier in the Sverdrup Mountains of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. They were photographed from the air by the Third German Antarctic Expedition (1938–39).
