The Hudson Mountains is a group of parasitic cones located at 74°20′S 99°25′W forming nunataks just above the Antarctic ice sheet in west Ellsworth Land. These mountains lie just east of Cranton Bay and Pine Island Bay at the eastern extremity of the Amundsen Sea, and are bounded on the north by Cosgrove Ice Shelf and on the south by the Pine Island Glacier.
