Napier Mountains - Location

Location

A subsidiary of the Enderby Land Coast Ranges, the Napier Mountains are located roughly 4 degrees west of Cape Boothby, Edward VIII Bay and Edward VIII Ice Shelf, and 3.5 degrees east of Amundsen Bay. The Napier Mountains are centered about 64 km south of Cape Batterbee in Enderby Land, East Antarctica. It extends about 64 km in a NW-SE direction from Mount Codrington, and also includes Mount Kjerringa, and the Young Nunataks.

The Enderby Land Coast Ranges are considered to be a subset of their parent ranges, the Wilkes Land Coast Ranges. The Wilkes Land Coast Ranges are, in turn, a subsidiary of their parent ranges, the East Antarctica Ranges.
