Mount Cole (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.) is a mountain over 1,400 metres (4,600 ft) high, on the west side of Shackleton Glacier, between the mouths of Forman Glacier and Gerasimou Glacier, in the Queen Maud Mountains. It was discovered and photographed by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Nelson R. Cole, Aviation Machinist's Mate with U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6, who lost his life in a helicopter crash in the McMurdo Sound area in July 1957.
