Brown along with others from HMS Investigator including Ferdinand Bauer and William Westall climbed the mountain on 10 and 11 March 1802.
The Nukunu people are traditional custodians of the land.
The mountain has a height of 964 m (3,163 ft).
Since 1993, it has been located within the boundaries of the protected area known as the Mount Brown Conservation Park.
