Mount Youngman

Mount Youngman is a snow-covered coastal mountain (620 m) mi to km|4 southeast of Scott Nunataks in the Alexandra Mountains of Antarctica. It stands at the head of Cumbie Glacier and overlooks Swinburne Ice Shelf and Sulzberger Bay which are just to its north.

The mountain was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1964-66. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Captain Samuel A. Youngman, U.S. Navy, medical officer on the staff of the "Commander", U.S. Naval Support Force, Antarctica, during Operation Deep Freeze 1969 and 1970.
