The Collier Hills are a group of largely ice-free hills in the West Antarctic Heritage Range , which is part of the Pioneer Heights . The peaks lie between the Schanz Glacier in the west and the Driscoll Glacier in the east, both of which flow south into the Union Glacier . The peaks of the Collier Hills are Mount Rodger ( 1410 m ) in the northwest and Charles Peak ( 990 m ) in the southeast.

The Collier Hills got their name from the Ellsworth Mountains expedition of the University of Minnesota in the summer of 1962/63, which they named after Robert M. Collier, an engineering geographer of the United States Geological Survey and participant of the expedition.
