Davidov Spur ( Bulgarian: Давидов рид, ‘Davidov Rid’ \da-'vi-dov 'rid\ is the narrow rocky ridge of elevation 1492 m [1] projecting from Detroit Plateau 2.75 km west-northwestwards into upper Cayley Glacier on Danco Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica.
The ridge is named after Niki Davidov, photographer at St. Kliment Ohridski base in 2000/01 and 2009/10 seasons, for his work on promoting awareness and appreciation of Antarctica.
