The San Gorgonio Pass, or Banning Pass, is a 2,600 ft (790 m) elevation gap on the rim of the Great Basin between the San Bernardino Mountains to the north and the San Jacinto Mountains to the south. The pass was formed by the San Andreas Fault, a major transform fault between the Pacific plate and the North American plate. The tall mountain ranges on either side of the pass result in the pass being a transitional zone from a Mediterranean climate west of the pass, to a Desert climate east of the pass. This also makes the pass area one of the windiest places in the United States, and why it is home to the San Gorgonio Pass wind farm.

  • Der San-Gorgonio-Pass (Höhe 485 m) ist ein Gebirgspass im US-Bundesstaat Kalifornien. Er bildet die Grenze zwischen den San Bernardino Mountains im Norden und den San Jacinto Mountains im Süden. Die Interstate 10 sowie eine Eisenbahnstrecke der Union Pacific Railroad führen über den Pass; verkehrstechnisch dient er somit als Verbindung zwischen Greater Los Angeles Area und Coachella Valley. Der Pass ist nach dem heiligen Gorgonius von Rom benannt. (de)
  • San Gorgonio​ es un puerto de montaña ubicado a unos 485 msnm entre las sierra de San Bernardino al norte y la de San Jacinto al sur, en el estado de California. Junto al puerto del Cajón al noreste, tiene su origen en la falla de San Andrés. Este puerto no es tan empinado como los puertos del Cajón y el Tejón, pero si es uno de los puertos de montaña más profundos de los 48 estados continentales contiguos de los EE.UU, con sierras a ambos lados que se alzan a 2 700 metros sobre el nivel del puerto. El pico de San Gorgonio se localiza en el borde norte del puerto y el monte San Jacinto en el límite sur. El monte San Jacinto cuenta con el quinto lugar en la clasificación de paredes de rocas en América del Norte. Se encuentra al sur de la interestatal 10. Actualmente el puerto de montaña de (es)

  • Il passo di San Gorgonio (altitudine m s.l.m. 485) è un valico montano situato nella California meridionale, nella Contea di Riverside. Si trova tra le San Bernardino Mountains a nord e le San Jacinto Mountains a sud, ed è stato creato, come il a nord-ovest, dalla Faglia di Sant'Andrea. Il valico non è ripido quanto i passi Cajon o , ma è uno dei più profondi di tutti gli Stati Uniti continentali, essendo le montagne da entrambe le parti più elevate rispetto ad esso di almeno 2.700 metri. I due gruppi montuosi ai lati hanno come massimo sviluppo, rispettivamente, il a nord e il a sud. Quest'ultimo ha la quinta parete rocciosa più estesa del Nord America. La cima del Monte San Jacinto è solo a 10 kilometri a sud della Interstate 10, che attraversa il passo. Oggi esso è utilizzato sopratt (it)
