Johnson Spur
Johnson Spur is a rocky spur located south-southeast of Taylor Spur, southwest of Batil Spur and north-northwest of Long Peak, on the east side of the Sentinel Range in the Ellsworth Mountains of Antarctica. It forms the southeastern extremity of the Doyran Heights, and overlooks Rutford [Ice Stream] to the east and Obelya Glacier to the west.
The feature was first mapped by the United States [Geological Survey] from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1957–59, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for William F. Johnson, a meteorologist at South [Pole Station] in 1957.
