Mount Craven is a 1500  m high mountain in East Antarctic Victoria Land . In the northern part of the Everett Range in the Concord Mountains, it rises 6 km north of Cantrell Peak on the south side of the Ebbe Glacier .

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) mapped it based on its own surveys and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1960 to 1963.
