Description (see definition): An isolated mountain (1,270 m) at the SE margin of Forster Ice Piedmont on the W side of Antarctic Peninsula. The mountain has steep rock cliffs on its S side. First roughly surveyed by British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE). 1936-37. Photographed from the air by Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947, and resurveyed by Falklands Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), 1958. The name applied by UK Antarctic Place-names Committee (UK-APC) is suggestive of the shape of the feature, which resembles a recumbent lion.
