Mount Mayhew (65°35′S 62°26′W / 65.583°S 62.433°W / -65.583; -62.433) is a peak rising to 1,200 metres (4,000 ft) in Taridin Ridge, between Pequod Glacier and Starbuck Glacier, in the Aristotle Mountains on the east side of Graham Land, Antarctica. The southwest face of the peak is rocky and very steep, while the northeast face is snow-covered. The name is one of several in the vicinity applied by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee from Herman Melville's Moby-Dick, Mayhew being the captain of the Jeroboam.[1]
