Mount Hubel is a 1450 m high, striking and ice-free mountain in the East Antarctic Victoria Land . In the Saint Johns Range, it rises in the northern part of the Kuivinen Ridge above the Miller Glacier on the western flank of the Ringer Glacier .
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named the mountain in 2007 after Lieutenant Commander Edward Hugo Hubel (* 1926) from the Civil Engineer Corps of the Seabees , who was instrumental in the construction of the first McMurdo station and the first Amundsen-Scott South Pole station .
