B. Contour Line. <br /> Contour lines are the horizontal lines, curved or straight, that join points of the <br /> same elevation (height) above a given level, such as mean sea level. Contour lines can <br /> graphically show land features such as valleys, hills, creeks, and ridgelines. The spacing <br /> between contour lines — wide or narrow — can graphically show the relative steepness <br /> (grade) of the slope. <br /> Figure 1, on the following page, shows contour intervals reflected as contour lines, <br /> and how the spacing between contour lines can indicate the relative grade of the slope. <br /> tillilkh <br /> Contour Intervals t` <br /> _ � y" <br /> (Verticap N <br /> NN <br /> r =,� <br /> pill" <br /> ,,,;0/11611' <br /> ,ill/'-;.,11 <br /> Steep to Very______------ <br /> ery 11W <br /> Steep Slopes <br /> /\\N„...........„_______ ..........."4/ <br /> Moderate to <br /> Steep Slopes/ <br /> Figure 1: Contour Intervals, Contour Lines, and Slope Grades. <br /> C.
