Mount Loweth (73°27′S 93°33′W) is a snow-topped mountain, 1,420 metres (4,660 ft) high, with a steep rock cliff on the north side, located 6 nautical miles (11 km) east-northeast of Anderson Dome in the eastern end of the Jones Mountains, Antarctica. It was mapped by the University of Minnesota Jones Mountains Party in 1960–61, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Hugh F. Loweth of the Executive Offices of the President, who for some years was instrumental in the development and guidance of U.S. science policies and programs for Antarctica.
