466:. A massive mountain rising to 3,239 metres (10,627 ft) high, forming the central and highest peak of Eternity Range. First seen from the air and named Mount Hope by Lincoln Ellsworth during his flights of November 21 and 23, 1935. The mountain was surveyed and given the name Mount Wakefield by J.R. Rymill of BGLE in November 1936. The feature was subsequently photographed from the air by the USAS in September 1940, and by RARE in December 1947. A careful study of the reports, maps, and photographs of these expeditions, as well as additional survey of the area by FIDS in 1960, has led to the conclusion that Ellsworth's Mount Hope and Rymill's Mount Wakefield are synonymous. For the sake of historical continuity the name Mount Hope has been retained for this mountain, and the name Wakefield has been transferred to Wakefield Highland located close northwestward.

504:. A massive mountain 9 nautical miles (17 km; 10 mi) south of Mount Hope, rising 2,680 metres (8,790 ft) high from the south end of Eternity Range. First seen from the air and named by Lincoln Ellsworth during his flights of November 21 and 23, 1935. Surveyed by J.R. Rymill of BGLE in November 1936. The mountain was subsequently photographed from the air by the US AS in September 1940, and by RARE in December 1947. The feature is one of three major mountains in Ellsworth's Eternity Range to which he gave the names Faith, Hope and Charity.

682:. A mountain, 2,070 metres (6,790 ft) high, standing 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) east of the north part of the Eternity Range. This feature lies in the area explored from the air by Sir Hubert Wilkins in 1928 and Lincoln Ellsworth in 1935, but it was first charted by the BGLE in 1936-37. It was photographed from the air in 1940 by the USAS and in 1947 by the RARE under Ronne. Named by Ronne for Colonel H.R. Sullivan of the Office of Research and Development of the then USAAF, which furnished equipment for the expedition.

328:(FIDS), 1960, has led to the conclusion that the range described comprises at least the core of Ellsworth's Eternity Range and appropriately commemorates his discovery. The name "Wakefield", given by Rymill, has been transferred to nearby Wakefield Highland.
