Mount Faith is a massive mountain riding to 2,650 feet in the Eternity Range in the north of Palmer Land in the British Antarctic Territory. It stands nine nautical miles north of Mount Hope, the territory's highest point, at the northern end of the Eternity Range.
The mountain was first seen from the air and named by the American explorer Lincoln Ellsworth during his flights of 21 and 23 November 1935, and it was surveyed by John Riddoch Rymill of the British Graham Land Expedition in November 1936. The mountain was subsequently photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service in September 1940, and the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition in December 1947.
The feature is one of three major mountains in the range which Ellsworth named 'Eternity'; he named its three prominent mountains the others being Faith, Hope and Charity.
