For the mountain in Alaska, see Mount Trident.

Mount Trident (72°26′S, 169°14′E) is a prominent peak (2,480 m) with three closely-spaced summits, rising above Trigon Bluff on the north side of Tucker Glacier in Victoria Land, Antarctica. So named by New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE), 1957-58, because of the three summits.
