Mount Alf (77°55′S 86°07′W / 77.917°S 86.117°W / -77.917; -86.117) is a mountain rising over 3,200 m between Mount Sharp and Mount Dalrymple in the north part of the Sentinel Range, Antarctica. It surmounts Sabazios Glacier to the northeast.

The mountain was mapped by the Charles R. Bentley-led Marie Byrd Land Traverse party, 1957–58. Named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Edward A. Alf, meteorologist, member of the 1957 wintering party at Byrd Station.[1]
