Echo Pass

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Echo Pass (54°17′S, 36°33′W) is a pass, 305 m in elevation, lying 1.5 miles (2.4 km) southwest of Grytviken, South Georgia, in the chain of mountains which extends southwest from Mount Hodges. The pass provides a ski route from the station at Grytviken to the head of Cumberland West Bay. The name is used on the chart of a German expedition 1928-29, under Kohl-Larsen, who states that the name was already in use by whalers.
