Mount Alice Gade (85°45′S 163°40′W / 85.750°S 163.667°W / -85.750; -163.667) is a mainly ice-covered mountain over 3,400 m, marking the northeast extremity of the Rawson Plateau in the Queen Maud Mountains. It was discovered in November 1911 by Captain Roald Amundsen, and named by him for one of the daughters of the Norwegian minister (ambassador) and consul-general to Brazil, a strong supporter of Amundsen.
