Mount Faith (69°37′S 64°29′W / 69.617°S 64.483°W) is a massive mountain 9 nautical miles (17 km) north of Mount Hope, rising to 2,650 m from the north end of Eternity Range in northern Palmer Land. First seen from the air and named by Lincoln Ellsworth during his flights of November 21 and 23, 1935. Surveyed by J.R. Rymill of British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) in November 1936. The mountain was subsequently photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS) in September 1940, and Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) in December 1947. The feature is one of three major mountains in Ellsworth's Eternity Range to which he gave the names Faith, Hope and Charity.
