Mount Fell (73°26′S 62°16′W) is a mountain 8 nautical miles (15 km) west of Mount Hemmingsen in the northern part of the Werner Mountains in Palmer Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from ground surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1961–67, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Jack W.
