==Early exploration and naming== Parts of the group were first viewed from the [[Ross Ice Shelf]] by the British National Antarctic Expedition (BrNAE) of 1901β04. Additional portions of these mountains were mapped by a New Zealand party of the [[Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition]] (CTAE) of 1956β58, and they were completely mapped by the [[United States Geological Survey]] (USGS) from [[tellurometer]] surveys and US Navy air photos, 1959β63. Named by the NZ-APC for Captain [[James Cook]].{{sfn|Alberts|1995|p=151}}
