Mount Quandary (English for Dilemma Mountain ) is a 1,050 m high mountain in Graham Land on the Antarctic Peninsula . It rises 19 km northwest of Shiver Point on the east side and near the head end of the Hektoria Glacier .
The Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey carried out surveys in 1955. At the first sighting it was unclear whether it was an elevation of the central plateau in Grahamland or a remote mountain peak in the Hektoria Glacier. This led to its naming.
