Forrest Pass (75°53′S 132°34′W / 75.883°S 132.567°W) is a broad ice-filled pass between Mount Bursey, in the Flood Range, and the southern elevations of the Ames Range in Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–65, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for , a United States Antarctic Research Program photogrammetrist, surveyor and Principal Investigator for a National Science Foundation Ice Movement Study, member of the Byrd Station Traverse of 1962–63.

dbo:abstract
  • Der Forrest-Pass ist ein breiter und vereister Gebirgspass im westantarktischen Marie-Byrd-Land. Er liegt zwischen Mount Bursey in der Flood Range und den südlichen Erhebungen der Ames Range. Der United States Geological Survey kartierte ihn anhand eigener Vermessungen und Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy aus den Jahren von 1959 bis 1965. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte den Pass 1966 nach dem Glaziologen Robert B. Forrest, der von 1962 bis 1963 im Rahmen des United States Antarctic Research Program an einem Erkundungsmarsch von der Byrd-Station zum Whitmoregebirge teilgenommen hatte. (de)

  • O Passo de Forrest (75° 53' S 132° 34' O) é uma passagem montanhosa larga e coberta de gelo, que separa o Monte Bursey, na Cordilheira de Flood ao sul, da ao norte, que forma a extremidade sul da Cordilheira de Ames. Ele foi mapeado pelo Serviço Geológico dos Estados Unidos com base em exames topográficos e fotos aéreas feitas pela Marinha dos Estados Unidos, 1959–65, e foi nomeado pelo US-ACAN em homenagem a Robert B. Forrest, que serviu no Programa Antártico dos Estados Unidos como um glaciologista e Investigador Principal da Fundação Nacional da Ciência em um estudo sobre movimentos do gelo, e membro da Travessia da Estação Byrd de 1962-63.
