Mount Baxter is a large buttress-type mountain, located just south of O'Kane Canyon where it forms a rounded projection of the east escarpment of the Eisenhower Range, in Victoria Land. Discovered by the British National Antarctic Expedition (1901-04) under Scott, who named it for Sir George and Lady Baxter of Dundee, supporters of the expedition.
