Answered by Varsha456

Saddles are represented on the map by a set of rings of a flatter area with two separate ring sets to represent the two peaks. A Pass is the actual low point in the saddle and a col is a pass going through an arete. Pass and cols are more commonly seen in higher mountainous areas rather than in lower altitude.

shruti6427: can u explain it in more easy way ?

Varsha456: saddle, there is high ground in two opposite directions and lower ground in the other two directions. A saddle is normally represented as an hourglass.
