It was discovered by the [[Byrd Antarctic Expedition]] in 1934 from a great distance. Reconnaissance flights by the USAS (1939–41) explored the range. The principle mountain was named "Mount Hal Flood" by Byrd for his uncle, the Hon. Henry D. Flood, U.S. Representative from Virginia. The name was subsequently transferred from the mountain to the entire range. "Mount Hal Flood" is now known officially as [[Mount Berlin]].
