Mount Bray is a rounded mountain on the Walgreen coast of Marie-Byrd Land in western Antarctica that is ice-covered except for its steep southeast flank . It rises east of Jenkins Heights and 2.5 km northwest of Klimov Bluff .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it on the basis of its own surveys and with the help of aerial photographs by the United States Navy from 1959 to 1966. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1967 after Thomas K. Bray, the survey's topography engineer while exploring the Marie- Byrd-Lands from 1966 to 1967.
