Mount Peter (70°11′S 64°56′E) is a large dome-shaped rock outcrop with a flat, sheer north face, about 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) east of Mount Bechervaise in the Athos Range, Prince Charles Mountains. First visited in November 1955 by an ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) party led by J.M. Bechervaise. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for Peter Crohn, geologist at Mawson Station, 1955-56.
