Mount Pond is a peak, {{convert|550|m|abbr=on}} in height, standing {{convert|2.8|km|abbr=on}} east-south-east of Pendulum Cove, on Deception Island in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica. The name appears on an 1829 chart based upon survey work by the British expedition under Foster, 1828-31. It was probably named for John Pond, noted English astronomer and director of the Royal Observatory at Greenwich at that time. Antarctic Specially Protected AreaThe peak forms part of an Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA 140), comprising several separate sites on Deception Island, and designated as such primarily for its botanic and ecological values.[1] References1. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.ats.aq/documents/recatt/Att242_e.pdf|title= Parts of Deception Island, South Shetland Islands |accessdate=2013-09-28 |work=Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 140: Measure 3, Appendix 1|first= |last= |publisher=Antarctic Treaty Secretariat |year=2005}} {{usgs-gazetteer}}{{Antarctic Specially Protected Areas}}{{coord|62|57|S|60|33|W|display=title}}{{DeceptionIsland-geo-stub}} 3 : Mountains of the South Shetland Islands|Geography of Deception Island|Antarctic Specially Protected Areas |
