A mountain, 1432m high, in the Queen Alexandra Range, rising on the south side of the Shackleton Inlet, on the west side of the Ross Ice Shelf. Discovered by the NAE, 1901-04, and named for the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. It was from Lyttelton, the harbour of Christchurch, that the expedition sailed for the Antarctic. Not only had much material assistance been given from there, but thousands of people lined the shore to bid the Discovery farewell.
