Mount Dayton (85°44′S 158°41′W) is a mainly ice-free mountain, 1,420 metres (4,660 ft) high, at the east side of Amundsen Glacier, standing 5 nautical miles (9 km) west of Mount Goodale in the Hays Mountains. It was mapped from ground surveys and air photos by the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, 1928–30, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Paul K. Dayton III, a biologist with the McMurdo Station winter party of 1964.
