Rogers Spur (74°30′S 111°24′W) is a rocky, wedge-shaped spur located at the head of Brush Glacier on Bear Peninsula, Walgreen Coast, Marie Byrd Land. First mapped by United States Geological Survey (USGS) from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump in January 1947. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) after James C. Rogers, electrical engineer at the Byrd (very low frequency) Sub-station, 1966.
