Washington Escarpment (83°42′S 55°8′W / 83.700°S 55.133°W) is the major west-facing escarpment of the Neptune Range, Pensacola Mountains in Antarctica, extending some 50 miles (80 km) and being the point of origin of a number of west-trending rock ridges. Mapped by United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for the University of Washington at Seattle. Several members of the Neptune Range field party of 1963-64 attended this university.

| - Das Washington Escarpment ist eine große, nach Westen ausgerichtete Geländestufe im westantarktischen Queen Elizabeth Land. Sie erstreckt sich in der Neptune Range der Pensacola Mountains über eine Strecke von 80 km und stellt den Ursprung einer Reihe nach Westen verlaufender Gebirgskämme dar. Der United States Geological Survey kartierte die Geländestufe anhand von Vermessungen und Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy zwischen 1956 und 1966. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte sie 1965 nach der University of Washington, von der zahlreiche Mitglieder einer Mannschaft des Survey stammten, die zwischen 1963 und 1964 Vermessungen der Neptune Range durchführte.
