The Misty Pass ( English for fog -Pass ) is a mountain pass in the north of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . It runs at a height of 700 m about 13 km southeast of Cape Ducorps between the Broad Valley and a valley on the Trinity Peninsula that slopes north to Huon Bay .
The Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey mapped the area in 1946 and named it after the clouds drifting east over the pass as harbingers of bad weather.
