Mount Mills is a mountain, 2,955 metres (9,700 ft) high, forming part of the north escarpment of the Dominion Range in Antarctica, overlooking Beardmore Glacier 8 nautical miles (15 km) north of Mount Saunders. It was discovered by the British Antarctic Expedition (1907–09) and named for Sir James Mills who, with the government of New Zealand, paid the cost of towing the expedition ship Nimrod to Antarctica in 1908.[1]
