Mountain
Hagues Peak is named after geologists James and Arnold Hague, who surveyed the area in the late 1800s.[5] Fairchild Mountain is located about 1.4 miles (2.3 km) to the southwest, while Mummy Mountain is located about 1.4 miles (2.3 km) to the southeast. The Rowe Glacier lies about 300 yards (270 m) north of the mountain.[6]
