Brown Valley


Brown Valley is a rectangular ice-covered valley between Mount Kauffman and Mount Kosciusko in the northeast end of the Ames Range, Marie Byrd Land. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Thomas I. Brown, United States Antarctic Research Program meteorologist at Byrd Station in 1963.
