The Pinnacle Pass ( English for Felsnadelpass ) is a mountain pass on South Georgia in the South Atlantic . On the Thatcher Peninsula, it lies south of Narval Peak and leads from the area around Gull Lake in the southeast to the Sphagnum Valley in the northwest.
The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named it in 2007 after a rock spike in the middle of the pass.
