Butchers Spur (85°34′S 166°30′W / 85.567°S 166.500°W) is a high ice-covered spur which descends southwestward from Mount Don Pedro Christophersen to the polar plateau. This feature on the south margin of the Queen Maud Mountains is the location of Roald Amundsen's "Butcher Shop." It was here in November 1911 that his party slaughtered their excess sledge dogs, consuming portions themselves and permitting the remaining sledge dogs a feast, prior to making the final dash to the South Pole, which was reached on December 14.

  • Der Butchers Spur ist ein hoher, vereister Felssporn im westantarktischen Marie-Byrd-Land. Er fällt vom Mount Don Pedro Christophersen zum Polarplateau ab und markiert den Südrand des Königin-Maud-Gebirges. An diesem Ort ließ der norwegische Polarforscher Roald Amundsen im November 1911 bei seiner erfolgreichen Südpolexpedition (1910–1912) einen Großteil der Schlittenhunde als Nahrungsvorrat für die Südpolmannschaft und die übrigen Hunde töten und benannte ihn als Butcher Shop (deutsch Metzgerei).

  • Butcher's Spur är en bergstopp i Antarktis. Den ligger i Västantarktis. Nya Zeeland gör anspråk på området. Toppen på Butcher's Spur är 3 210 meter över havet. Terrängen runt Butcher's Spur är varierad. Den högsta punkten i närheten är Mount Don Pedro Christophersen, 3 925 meter över havet, 7,2 kilometer nordost om Butcher's Spur. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)

  • Il Butchers Spur (in lingua inglese: Sperone della macelleria) è un alto sperone antartico coperto di ghiaccio, che scende in direzione nordorientale dal Monte Don Pedro Christophersen verso l'Altopiano Antartico, nei Monti della Regina Maud, in Antartide. Lo sperone, situato sul margine meridionale dei Monti della Regina Maud, è la sede della cosiddetta macelleria di Amundsen. In quest'area infatti nel novembre 1911 il gruppo sud della spedizione antartica dell'esploratore polare norvegese Roald Amundsen macellò l'eccesso di cani da slitta, alimentandosi con parte della carne e dandone da mangiare anche agli altri cani da slitta, prima di fare l'ultimo tratto del percorso verso il Polo Sud, che fu raggiunto il 14 dicembre 1911.
