Ickes Mountains
The Ickes Mountains () are a series of coastal mountains that extend west from Strauss Glacier for in Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica. The mountains were discovered from aircraft of the U.S. Antarctic Service on December 18, 1940. The name Ickes Mountains, after U.S. Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes, appeared in the maps and reports resulting from this expedition although Ickes objected and never acquiesced to the use. Nonetheless, the name became established in usage and in 1966 was approved by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names
