spur  Interlocking spurs (above) and truncated spurs (below). Interlocking spurs are formed by meandering rivers; truncated spurs are interlocking spurs eroded by glaciation. | Ridge of rock jutting out into a valley or plain. In mountainous areas rivers often flow around interlocking spurs because they are not powerful enough to erode through the spurs. Spurs may be eroded away by large and powerful glaciers to form truncated spurs. |
