Napier Mountains
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Napier Mountains () is a group of more-or-less separated peaks, the highest 2,300 m, extending 40 miles in a NW-SE direction and centering about 40 miles south of Cape Batterbee in Enderby Land, in Antarctica. They were discovered in January 1930 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) under Mawson, who named them for the Hon. John Mellis Napier, a judge of the Supreme Court of South Australia.
