Mount Gran (76°59′S 160°58′E / 76.983°S 160.967°E / -76.983; 160.967) is a large flat-topped mountain, 2,235 metres (7,330 ft) high, standing at the north side of Mackay Glacier and immediately west of Gran Glacier in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13, which named it for Tryggve Gran, a Norwegian naval officer who was a ski expert with the expedition.[1]
