The Bullseye Mountain is a rounded and mainly ice-covered mountain in the Antarctic Ross Dependency . It rises 6 km northwest of Mount Ropar from the Peletier Plateau in the Queen Elizabeth Range of the Transantarctic Mountains .
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it descriptively in 1965 based on its semicircular, concentric banding made of snow on the south side, reminiscent of a dartboard .
