Elhovo Gap

Elhovo Gap (Elhovska Sedlovina \'el-hov-ska se-dlo-vi-'na\) is a 420 m high saddle extending 1 km in west-southwest–east-northeast direction from Gleaner Heights to Leslie Hill on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica, which forms part of the overland route between Bowles Ridge and Vidin Heights. The saddle is named after the Bulgarian town of Elhovo, in association with the artificial Christmas tree ('elha' in Bulgarian) brought by the Tangra 2004/05 Survey team (Lyubomir Ivanov and Doychin Vasilev) to their bivouac at Leslie Hill occupied 24–28 December 2004, making in the process the first crossing of Elhovo Gap.

Location
The gap is centred at -62.57278°N, -60.21667°W (Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 and mapping in 2005 and 2009).
