The Boyer Spur is a ridge on the Black Coast of the Palmerland in the south of the Antarctic Peninsula . It rises at the base of the Condor Peninsula between the Kellogg and Gruening Glaciers and around 8 km west-northwest of Malva Bluff and the northwest head end of Hilton Inlet .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it in 1974. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1976 after Stephen J. Boyer, geologist of the survey and member of the team that mapped the area along the Lassiter coast between 1972 and 1973 .
