Mount Reed ( 67°2′S51°38′E / 67.033°S 51.633°E ) is a mountain standing on the north side of Beaver Glacier, 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) east of Mount Sones in the Tula Mountains, Antarctica. It was plotted from air photos taken by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) in 1956 and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) in 1962 for J.E. Reed, a member of the crew of the Discovery during the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) of 1929–31.

The Usarp Mountains are a major Antarctic mountain range, lying west of the Rennick Glacier and trending north to south for about 190 kilometres (118 mi). The feature is bounded to the north by Pryor Glacier and the Wilson Hills.
The Prince Charles Mountains are a major group of mountains in Mac. Robertson Land in Antarctica, including the Athos Range, the Porthos Range, and the Aramis Range. The highest peak is Mount Menzies, with a height of 3,228 m (10,591 ft). Other prominent peaks are Mount Izabelle and Mount Stinear. These mountains, together with other scattered peaks, form an arc about 420 km (260 mi) long, extending from the vicinity of Mount Starlight in the north to Goodspeed Nunataks in the south.
The Tula Mountains are a group of extensive mountains lying immediately eastward of Amundsen Bay in Enderby Land, Antarctica. They were discovered on January 14, 1930, by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) under Mawson and named "Tula Range" by him after John Biscoe's brig, the Tula, from which Biscoe discovered Enderby Land in 1831. The term "mountains" was recommended for the group following an ANARE sledge survey in 1958 by G.A. Knuckey.
Beaver Glacier is a glacier about 15 miles (24 km) long and 4 miles (6 km) wide, flowing west into Amundsen Bay between Auster Glacier and Mount Gleadell. The head of Beaver Glacier is located very close to the base of Mount King in Enderby Land. It was visited by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) party on October 28, 1956, and named after the Beaver aircraft used by ANARE in coastal exploration.
The Scott Mountains are a large number of isolated peaks lying south of Amundsen Bay in Enderby Land of East Antarctica, Antarctica. Discovered on 13 January 1930 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) under Sir Douglas Mawson. He named the feature Scott Range after Captain Robert Falcon Scott, Royal Navy. The term mountains is considered more appropriate because of the isolation of its individual features.
Enderby Land is a projecting landmass of Antarctica. Its shore extends from Shinnan Glacier at about 67°55′S44°38′E to William Scoresby Bay at 67°24′S59°34′E, approximately 1⁄24 of the earth's longitude. It was first documented in western and eastern literature in February 1831 by John Biscoe aboard the whaling brig Tula, and named after the Enderby Brothers of London, the ship's owners who encouraged their captains to combine exploration with sealing.
Wilson Hills is a group of scattered hills, nunataks and ridges that extend NW-SE for about 110 kilometres (68 mi) between Matusevich Glacier and Pryor Glacier in Antarctica. They were discovered by Lieutenant Harry Pennell, Royal Navy, on the Terra Nova Expedition in February 1911 during Robert Falcon Scott's last expedition, and named after Edward Adrian Wilson, a zoologist with the expedition, who perished with Scott on the return journey from the South Pole.
Gildea Glacier is a glacier 10 kilometres (6 mi) long and 5 kilometres (3 mi) wide flowing southwestward from Craddock Massif between Mount Slaughter and Mount Atkinson into Nimitz Glacier, in the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. The upper portion of the glacier also receives ice from Hammer Col and southern Vinson Massif.
On the continent of Antarctica, the Aramis Range is the third range south in the Prince Charles Mountains, situated 11 miles southeast of the Porthos Range and extending for about 30 miles in a southwest–northeast direction. It was first visited in January 1957 by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) southern party led by W.G. Bewsher, who named it for a character in Alexandre Dumas' novel The Three Musketeers, the most popular book read on the southern journey.
The Condon Hills are a group of hills rising to 840 metres (2,760 ft) along the east side of Rayner Glacier, Enderby Land. They were plotted from air photos taken by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in 1956 and 1957, and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for M.A. Condon, Assistant Director, Bureau of Mineral Resources, Canberra, Australia.
Wakeford Nunatak is a small nunatak 3 nautical miles (6 km) east of the Central Masson Range in the Framnes Mountains, Mac. Robertson Land. Plotted from photos taken from ANARE aircraft in 1960 and seen by an ANARE party in 1962. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for R. Wakeford, cook at Mawson Station in 1962.
Stor Hånakken Mountain is a prominent mountain, 1,970 m, standing in the central part of the Napier Mountains in Enderby Land. The mountain was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from aerial photographs taken in January–February 1937 by the Lars Christensen expedition and named by them Store Hånakken. It was visited in 1960 by an ANARE party led by Sydney L. Kirkby.
Mount Dungey is a mountain 1 nautical mile (2 km) west of Pythagoras Peak in the Tula Mountains, Enderby Land, Antarctica. It was plotted from air photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1956, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for F.G. Dungey, a member of the crew of the Discovery during the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition of 1929–31.
Mount Park is a mountain 3 nautical miles (6 km) west of Mount Tomlinson in the northeast part of the Scott Mountains, Enderby Land. It was plotted from air photos taken from ANARE aircraft in 1956 and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for J.A. Park, a member of the crew of the Discovery during the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) of 1929–31.
Mount Harding is the largest mountain in the Grove Mountains of Antarctica, in the south-central part of the range and about 4 nautical miles (7 km) west of Gale Escarpment. It was mapped by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (1956–60) from aerial photographs, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for N.E. Harding, a topographic draftsman with the Division of National Mapping, Australian Department of National Development, who contributed substantially to the production of Antarctic maps.
The Miller Nunataks are a group of nunataks standing 11 nautical miles (20 km) southwest of Mount Storegutt in Enderby Land, Antarctica. They were mapped from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions surveys and air photos from 1954 to 1966, and were named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for K.R. Miller, a weather observer at Mawson Station in 1962.
Mount McLennan is a mountain 4 nautical miles (7 km) south of the Howard Hills in the northeast part of the Scott Mountains, Enderby Land, Antarctica. It was plotted from air photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1956 and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for K. McLennan, a member of the crew of the Discovery during the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition of 1929–31.
Mount Marsland is a mountain standing 6 nautical miles (11 km) south of the eastern part of Beaver Glacier in Enderby Land, Antarctica. It was plotted from air photos taken by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in 1956 and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia in 1962 for F.L. Marsland, a member of the crew of the Discovery during the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition of 1929–31.
Mount Sones is a mountain standing on the north side of Beaver Glacier, two nautical miles (3.7 km) west of Mount Reed in the Tula Mountains in Enderby Land, Antarctica.
Mount Tomlinson is a mountain 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) south of Mount Marsland in the northeast part of the Scott Mountains, Enderby Land of Antarctica.
