'''Miller Spur''' (75°07′S 137°29′W) is an [[ice]]-covered spur that descends northeast from [[Mount Giles]]. The spur terminates in a small rock bluff about 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) west of lower [[Hull Glacier]].

==Discovery and name==
The spur was observed and photographed on 18 December 1940, from aircraft of the U.S. [[Antarctic]] Service led by Admiral [[Richard Byrd]]. Miller Spur was named by US-ACAN in honor of Linwood T. Miller, a sailmaker and member of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition (1933-35). Miller was responsible for producing windproof shirts, parkas, tents and other canvas materials for the expedition.
