It surmounts Sabazios Glacier to the north-northeast and Embree Glacier to the southeast.

The mountain was mapped by the Marie Byrd Land Traverse party, 1957–58 and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Paul C. Dalrymple, meteorologist, member of the wintering party at Little America V in 1957 and the South Pole Station in 1958.[1]
