Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
A contour crossing a spur forms a V pointing uphill, in the same way as a valley.
Answer: A
Correct answer: False
A spur is the opposite case and gives the opposite V. The ground on a spur is higher than that on either side, so the contour bulges outward and downhill, and the V points downhill - away from the high ground. Valley Vs point upstream, spur Vs point downslope, and telling the two apart is what lets a reader distinguish a ridge from a re-entrant.
