Mount Fairweather is a prominent mountain, 1,865 metres (6,120 ft) high, standing at the head of Somero Glacier, 4 nautical miles (7 km) north-east of Mount Schevill, in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica. It was so named by the Southern Party of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1963–64), which experienced a spell of unusually fine weather while in the vicinity of this peak.
