The
Holyoake Range is a largely ice-free limestone massif. It is 6 miles (9.7 km) wide on average. The peaks rise steadily from Cambrian Bluff in the south at 4,880 feet (1,490 m) to Mount Hunt further north at 10,525 feet (3,208 m). The range rises abruptly from the bordering
607:. Mountain, 3,240 metres (10,630 ft) high, which stands in the north part of the Holyoake Range and is its highest point. Mapped by the southern party of the NZGSAE (1960-61) and named for Capt. P.J. Hunt, RE, leader of the party. Not: Mount Hunt.
847:. A snowfield feeding the central portion of the Starshot Glacier, separating the Surveyors and Holyoake Ranges. Seen by the Holyoake, Cobham and Queen Elizabeth Ranges party of the NZGSAE (1964-65) and named for G. Mansergh, geologist with the party.
798:. Prominent bluff jutting into the north side of Nimrod Glacier and forming the south end of the Holyoake Range. Named by the southern party of the NZGSAE (1960–61) because the bluff is faced with vast seams of pink and white marble.
