Terminus Mountain

Terminus Mountain (78°8′S 163°36′E) is a mountain over 800 metres (2,600 ft), standing immediately south of Adams Glacier on the east side of the Royal Society Range in Victoria Land. It was climbed on March 1, 1911 by Taylor and the Western Journey Party of the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13. So named by Taylor because it was the furthest point they ascended in this area.
