The Fielding Col is an east-west oriented and 550 m high mountain pass on the Fallières coast of Graham Land on the Antarctic Peninsula . It runs between the Baudin Peaks and the Hag Pike and is the most famous route between the Neny Fjord and the Wordie Ice Shelf to the Morgan Upland .
The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named the passport in 1971 after Harold Michael Fielding (* 1944) of the British Antarctic Survey , who worked on Stonington Island from 1967 to 1969 .
