It is an oblique reference, to be sure, and done so to avoid revealing the spoiler that you mentioned. In any case, I'm glad to meet another HPL fan, and thank you for commenting! -Matt Hi David,

It's about (spoiler alert): an ill-fated expedition to the arcitc that discovers the remains of a city inhabited by aliens who colonized earth in the distant past. “At the Mountains of Madness tells the story of an ill-fated expedition into the arctic that uncovers evidence that mankind’s past may lay among the stars. ”

A search for the name happily turns up the other parts, so it is no problem, of course. Thanks so much for this!
