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. Other prominent peaks are Mount Izabelle and Mount Stinear. These mountains together with other scattered peaks form an arc about 260 miles long, extending from the vicinity of Mount Starlight in the north to Goodspeed Nunataks in the south.
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.

Mule Peninsula is an irregularly shaped rocky peninsula between Ellis Fjord and Krok Fjord in the southern part of the Vestfold Hills of Princess Elizabeth Land, Antarctica. It was mapped from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition of 1936–37 and named Breidnesmulen by Norwegian cartographers. Mule Peninsula is an adaptation of the original Norwegian name by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia.
Trost Rocks is a two rock outcrops at the northeast end of Single Island on the west side of the Amery Ice Shelf. The rocks were photographed from ANARE aircraft in 1956 and their position fixed by a field party in December 1962. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for P.A. Trost, electronics engineer at Mawson Station in 1962, a member of the field party which visited the rocks.
Cape Granat is a cape in the western part of the Thala Hills, 7 nautical miles (13 km) northeast of Campbell Glacier, on the coast of Enderby Land, Antarctica. Molodezhnaya Station is just south of the cape. This feature was mapped and called "Mys Granat" by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition, 1961–62.
Seavers Nunataks are two nunataks 16 nautical miles (30 km) west of Mount Scherger, near the head of Fisher Glacier in the Prince Charles Mountains, Mac. Robertson Land. Mapped from ANARE air photos and surveys, 1958 and 1960-61. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for J.A. Seavers, assistant cook at Mawson Station, a member of the ANARE field party in this area in 1961.
Mount Soucek is a mountain standing between Mount Hardy and Peacock Ridge in the northwest part of the Tula Mountains, in 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 Dr. Zdeněk Souček, a medical officer at Wilkes Station in 1960.
Tester Nunatak is the southernmost of a group of three nunataks in the northern part of the Manning Nunataks, in the east part of Amery Ice Shelf. The nunataks were photographed by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47) and ANARE (1957). They were visited by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition in 1965 and by ANARE in 1969. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for J. Tester, aircraft engineer with the ANARE Prince Charles Mountains survey party in 1969.
