A valley is a low-lying area of land between two higher areas, often created by erosion from rivers or glaciers. It typically has a U-shaped or V-shaped profile. A spur, on the other hand, is a ridge of land that projects outward from the main mountain or hill mass. It is often created by erosion and can have a more linear or finger-like shape.

RossA valley is a low area of land between mountains or hills, often with a stream or river running through it. A spur is a narrow ridge that extends from the main mountain ridge or peak. Valleys are typically wider and deeper than spurs, and are formed by erosion from water or glaciers, while spurs are formed by the intersection of two valleys.
