The '''[[Gothic Mountains]]''' is a group of mountains, 32 kilometers (20 mi) long, in the [[Queen Maud Mountains]] of [[Westarctica]], located west of [[Watson Escarpment]] and bounded by [[Scott Glacier]], Albanus Glacier, and Griffith Glacier. The mountains were first visited in December 1934 by the [[Richard E. Byrd|Byrd Antarctic Expedition]] geological party led by Quin Blackburn. The name was proposed by Edmund Stump, leader of a U.S. [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] Research Program (USARP) - Arizona State University geological party which made investigations here in the 1980-81 season. The mountains are composed of granites which have weathered to produce a series of spires and peaks reminiscent of a Gothic cathedral.  
The Honorable '''[[Daniel McHenry]]''' is the father of [[Grand Duke Travis]], the ex-husband of the [[Countess of Benton]], as well as the paternal grand-father of both [[Prince Ashton Roman]] and [[Prince Daniel Nicholas]]. Since 2015, Daniel has served as Westarctica's [[Honorary Consular Corps|Consul to the Borough of Stillwater]], a tiny town in rural Pennsylvania that was founded by the McHenry family in the late 1700s. The [[Flag of Westarctica]] is flown on the Consulate's flagpole each winter after the first [[snow|snowfall]] and also whenever [[Grand Duke Travis]] is in residence. This image was captured during the "[[Foreign relations of Westarctica|Summer of Diplomacy]]" when the Grand Duke visited several micronations and participated in several diplomatic summits in an effort to raise Westarctica's diplomatic profile.
