Location edit

Mount Lister is in central Royal Society Range, the highest point on the main north-south ridge that includes The Pimple and Chaplains Tableland to the north and Mount Hooker, Salient Peak and Mount Rücker to the south. McConchie Ridge and Salient Ridge extend east from Salient Peak. Armitage Saddle connects the massif to the Denton Hills to the east. Emmanuel Glacier and its tributary Carleton Glacier run north along the east side of the ridge to Ferrar Glacier. Howchin Glacier flows southeast from the ridge system towards Koettlitz Glacier, while Salient Glacier, Hooker Glacier and Lister Glacier flow northeast into Blue Glacier. [3][4]

A ridge descends eastward from it and forms the watershed between tributaries of the Blue Glacier on the north and Walcott Glacier on the south. So named by the New Zealand Blue Glacier Party of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (CTAE; 1956-58) because it forms a salient of the Royal Society Range, where the summit turns southwest toward Mount Rücker and Mount Muggins.[17]

Ridges east of Salient Peak edit

To the east of Salient Peak, Salient Ridge extends northeast and McConchie Ridge extends southeast. A ridge extends due east to Armitage Saddle at the head of Blue Glacier, and from that ridge Chancellor Ridge extends southeast between Howchin Glacier and Walcott Glacier.[4]

It stands 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) west of Murihau Peak on the west-east ridge marking the head of Blue Glacier. Named by the New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB) in 1994. Poutini is the guardian taniwha of the essence of New Zealand greenstone.[22]

The saddle is at the south end of the "Snow Valley" (upper part of Blue Glacier) mapped by Armitage in 1902, and subsequently wrongly omitted from maps of the BrAE, 1910-13. The New Zealand Blue Glacier Party of the CTAE, 1956-58, established a survey station on the saddle in September 1957. They named it for Lieutenant A.B. Armitage, second-in-command of the BrNAE, 1901-04, in recognition of his exploration in this area.[24]
