The McCauley rock is a 1020 m high rock formation in the West Antarctic Queen Elizabeth Land . In the Forrestal Range of the Pensacola Mountains, it rises 10 km north of Mount Zirzow directly in front of the eastern edge of the Lexington Table .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own measurements and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from the years 1956 to 1966. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1968 after Clyde J. McCauley (* 1936), who was part of the winter team on the Ellsworth- Station in 1957.
