Mount Rosenthal ist ein Gipfel der Liberty Hills in der Westantarktis.[1] Die rund 1.840 m hohe Erhebung liegt am nördlichen Ende des Höhenzuges, etwa 5,5 km nordwestlich des Moulder Peak.

Der Berg wurde vom Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names nach dem US-Marineoffizier Lieutenant Commander Ronald Rosenthal benannt, der am 2. Februar 1966 bei einem Flugzeugabsturz mit der Douglas LC-47J „Spirit of McMurdo“[2] auf dem Ross-Schelfeis starb.[1]
