Mount Youngman is a snow-covered and 620 m high mountain in Marie Byrd Land in western Antarctica . It rises 6 km southeast of the Scott Nunatakker in the Alexandra Mountains on the Edward VII Peninsula . At the head of the Cumbie Glacier, it towers over the Swinburne Ice Shelf to the north and Sulzberger Bay .
