Mount Arrowsmith (76°46′S 162°18′E / 76.767°S 162.300°E / -76.767; 162.300) in Antarctica is a jagged rock peak near Mount Perseverance, 2 miles (3.2 km) along a ridge running northeast from that mountain, and a like distance east of Mount Whitcombe in Victoria Land. Mapped in 1957 by the New Zealand Northern Survey Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1956–58), it was named by them for its similarity to the Canterbury, New Zealand, mountain of that name, and in association with Mount Whitcombe.
