Walker Mountains (72°13′S 99°2′W / 72.217°S 99.033°W) is a range of peaks and nunataks which are fairly well separated but trend east–west to form the axis, or spine, of Thurston Island in Antarctica. They were discovered by Rear Admiral Byrd and members of the US Antarctic Service in a flight from the ship Bear on February 27, 1940. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lt. William M. Walker, captain of the United States Exploring Expedition ship Island on March 23, 1839.

  • Die Walker Mountains sind ein Gebirgszug aus Berggipfeln und Nunatakkern, der sich in ostwestlicher Ausrichtung über die gesamte Länge der Thurston-Insel vor der Eights-Küste des westantarktischen Ellsworthlands erstreckt. Entdeckt wurde das Gebirge bei einem Überflug am 27. Februar 1940 im Rahmen der United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939–1941). Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte es 1952 nach Leutnant William McCreary Walker (1813–1866), Kapitän des Schoners , einem der Expeditionsschiffe des US-amerikanischen Polarforschers Charles Wilkes bei der United States Exploring Expedition (1838–1842).
