The photo below show three lunar mountain ranges. Starting way down on the lower left is the crater Eratosthenes and the mountain range that curves up and to the left is the Montes Apenninus. Continuing across the gap that connects the Mare Seranitatis above and the Mare Imbrium below is the Montes Caucasus. The two large craters as you continue to the left are Eudoxus and Aristoteles. Below them are the Montes Alpes with the large crater Plato at the lower end of that range in the bottom left. The three large craters in the Mare Imbrium between the Apenninus and the Alpes are, from smallest to largest, Autolycus, Aristillus, and Archimedes. The peak in the midst of Mare Imbrium between Aristillus and that Alpes is Mons Piton which rises nearly 1.4 miles high.
