Sekirna Spur

Sekirna Spur (Bulgarian: връх Секирна, ‘Vrah Sekirna’ \'vr&h se-'kir-na) is the rocky, partly ice-free peak rising to 600 m at the southeast extremity of Zagreus Ridge on Oscar II Coast in Graham Land. It surmounts Hektoria Glacier to the northeast and southeast, and Paspal Glacier and Green Glacier to the west and south. The feature is named after the settlements of Gorna (Upper) and Dolna (Lower) Sekirna in Western Bulgaria.
