Mount Bruns is a mountain in Antarctica, 910 metres (2,990 ft) high, standing 4 nautical miles (7 km) north of Mount Lowry in the Anderson Hills in the northern Patuxent Range of the Pensacola Mountains. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for John E.
