Kohler Range ( 75°05′S 114°15′W  /  75.083°S 114.250°W  / -75.083; -114.250  ( Kohler Range ) ) is a mountain range in Marie Byrd Land , Antarctica. The range is about 40 nautical miles (74 km; 46 mi) long and stands between the base of Martin Peninsula and Smith Glacier. The range consists of two ice-covered plateaus punctuated by several rock peaks and bluffs. The plateaus are oriented East-West and are separated by the Kohler Glacier, a distributary which flows north from Smith Glacier.
