Levski Ridge

[1] The ridge extends nearly 8 km between Shipka Saddle to the west and Devin Saddle to the east, and the same distance between Cherepish Ridge to the north and Christoff Cliff to the south.

Remark: The name form ‘Great Needle’ has become established in usage for the ridge's summit, with ‘great’ considered more appropriate than the adjective ‘false’ in its Spanish name form ‘Pico Falsa Aguja’ as this major peak is hardly associated with the ‘true’ Needle Peak (Pico Aguja), a sharp black peak of elevation just 370 m situated near Samuel Point 8 km away.

The midpoint is located at 62°39′45″S 60°03′00″W / 62.66250°S 60.05000°W / -62.66250; -60.05000 which is situated 6.84 km east of Mount Friesland, 6.8 km southeast of Kuzman Knoll, 6.75 km west-southwest of Delchev Peak, and 3.3 km northwest of M'Kean Point (British mapping in 1968, Argentine mapping in 1980, and Bulgarian mapping in 2005 and 2009 from the topographic survey Tangra 2004/05).
