Mount McKenny (71°40′S 160°22′E / 71.667°S 160.367°E / -71.667; 160.367) is a mountain rising to 1,890 metres (6,200 ft) at the south end of the Daniels Range, 4 nautical miles (7 km) southeast of Mount Toogood, in the Usarp Mountains of Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–63, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Clarence D. McKenny, a United States Antarctic Research Program meteorologist who wintered at South Pole Station in 1959 and 1961, and at Eights Station in 1963.[1]
