The Skorefjell (in Australia Mount Bride ) is a 1520  m high mountain in the East Antarctic Enderbyland . In the Napier Mountains it rises 18 km northeast of Stor Hånakken .

Norwegian cartographers, who also named the mountain, mapped it using aerial photographs from the Lars Christensen expedition in 1936/37 . The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia named it after the Irish- born librarian Thomas Francis Bride (1849-1927), member of the first Australian committee for the study of Antarctica .
