St. Ivan Rilski Col

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St. Ivan Rilski Col (Rid Sv. Ivan Rilski \'rid sve-'ti i-'van 'ril-ski\) is an ice-covered col linking the Great Needle Peak (Falsa Aguja) and Levski Peak in Levski Ridge, Tangra Mountains, eastern Livingston Island, Antarctica.

The feature is 2.5 km long, its axis trending E-W, with precipitous northern and southern slopes. It has a slightly higher central portion of elevation approx. 1,350 m from which Kardam Buttress is projecting northwards. It is part of the divide between the glacial catchments of Huron Glacier to the N and the head of Macy Glacier to the S.

The col is named after Sveti Ivan Rilski (Saint John of Rila, 876-946 AD), a Bulgarian hermit who founded the Rila Monastery.

The col is located at 62°39′55″S, 60°04′54″W (Bulgarian mapping in 2005).
