Benz Pass

Benz Pass (63°41′S 58°22′W) is a narrow pass between the cliffs of Drenta Bluff in the southern extremity of Louis Philippe Plateau and Gigen Peak in the northwest part of the Erul Heights, situated 2 nautical miles (4 km) northeast of the head of Russell East Glacier, Trinity Peninsula. It was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (1960–61), and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Karl Benz, a German engineer who constructed the first practical gasoline motor car in 1885.
