Mount Glossopteris – 2,865 metres (9,400 ft) 84°44′S 113°43′W
A mainly ice-covered mountain which may be identified by the exposed horizontal bedding on the north face, located at the NE end of Buckeye Table. The name was proposed by USARP geologist William Long, a member of the Horlick Mountains Traverse party 1958-59, who, with Charles Bentley, Frederic Darling and Jack Long, climbed to the summit in December 1958. Glossopteris is a prehistoric fernlike plant whose imprint was found on rocks of this mountain.[5]
