it is very difficult to explain the spur terrrain feature without a map. Either way, in topographic maps, the color brown means terrrain and it's features. those lines will form mountains, depretions, hilltops, saddles and spurs. Basicly the spur will be the side of the hill forming a line with two sides until it reaches the flat terrrain. That line in the middle of the spur is the ridge.
