Topografische Karte vom Mount Overlord (Maßstab 1:250.000)

Der sehr weit ausgedehnte, 3396 hohe Berg liegt an der Grenze des Deception-Plateaus und genau östlich des oberen Endes des Aviator-Gletschers. Mount Overlord wurde von der nördlichen Teilgruppe der New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) so bezeichnet, weil er die übrigen, niedrigeren Berge seiner Umgebung „beherrschte“ (engl. overlord – Oberherr).
