Names that other countries have for this feature:
S-most peak of Eternity Range (q.v.), rising to 2650m, was probably one of the three peaks seen from the air by Ellsworth on 21 November 1935 and named Mount Faith (q.v.), Mount Hope (q.v.), and Mount Charity, "because we had to have faith, and we hoped for charity in the midst of cold hospitality" (Ellsworth, 1936b, map p.4, p.8; APC, 1962, p.8; DOS 610 sheet W 69 64, 1963). Charity, with reference to the lack of positive identification of this peak based on comparison of Ellsworth's and BGLE's photographs (Stephenson and Hinks, 1940, p.180). Monte CarĂ¯dad [translation of English name] (Otero Espasandin, 1943, p.15).
