The east face of Mount Geikie area has two named features that lie to the north and south. The Chin at {{convert|1116|m}} lies to the south, and is the point where the West Coast Range dips to the glacial features known as the Hamilton moraine. The Bastion at {{convert|1107|m}} is part of a glaciated wall that extends north.[5] The surrounding high ground to the north of Mount Geikie is often known as 'The Tyndalls' or confused with Mount Tyndall.[6] The area is at the northern end of a block of mountains that are north of Mount Sedgwick which sits above the first large glacial valley between Mount Sedgwick and Mount Lyell. The 'Tyndalls' have a number of glacial lakes, and lies south east of the Henty Gold-Mine, and Hydro Tasmania dam on the Henty River – and south of Lake Mackintosh, Lake Murchison and Tullah.
