Bridge Pass (81°46′S 160°42′E) is a high pass between Surveyors Range and Nash Range, at the upper reaches of Dickey Glacier and Algie Glacier, affording a passage from the Nimrod Glacier region to Beaumont Bay. It was named by the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1960–61) for Captain Lawrence D.
