Miller Spur (75°7′S 137°29′W / 75.117°S 137.483°W) is an ice-covered spur that descends northeast from Mount Giles, near the coast of Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica. The spur terminates in a small rock bluff about 1 nautical mile (2 km) west of lower Hull Glacier. It was observed and photographed on December 18, 1940, from aircraft of the United States Antarctic Service led by Admiral Richard Byrd, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for sailmaker , a member of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, 1933–35, who produced windproof shirts, parkas, tents and other canvas materials for the expedition.

dbo:abstract
  • Der Miller Spur ist ein vereister Felssporn im westantarktischen Marie-Byrd-Land. An der Ruppert-Küste erstreckt er sich vom Mount Giles ausgehend in nordöstlicher Richtung. Er endet in Form eines kleinen Felsenkliffs 1,5 km westlich des unteren Abschnitts des Hull-Gletschers. Teilnehmer der United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939–1941) entdeckten und fotografierten ihn bei einem Überflug am 18. Dezember 1940. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte ihn 1974 nach Linwood Thomas Miller (1893–1961), Teilnehmer an der zweiten Antarktisexpedition (1933–1935) des US-amerikanischen Polarforschers Richard Evelyn Byrd.
