Mapping and name
The mountain was mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos collected during the 1959–66 research seasons. Mount Bray was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in honor of Thomas K. Bray, a USGS topographic engineer with the Marie Byrd Land Survey party in 1966–67.
