Topographic Map

Topographic Maps show the elevation of an area. They use contour lines to show the different elevation changes. In this particular map it is showing the Elden mountains. In all topo maps the closer the contour lines are together means the change in elevation is greater. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.ghosttowns.com/Images/tandr.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.ghosttowns.com/topotmaps.html&usg=__74Rmq7-TWbNBgS8m_GxKzJeMC6o=&h=456&w=432&sz=29&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=rjT1RKuS7DQd1M:&tbnh=139&tbnw=132&ei=DTgiTqahOISitgfZxs25Aw&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dtopographic%2Bmaps%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1363%26bih%3D740%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=997&vpy=384&dur=3843&hovh=231&hovw=218&tx=165&ty=91&page=1&ndsp=28&ved=1t:429,r:19,s:0&biw=1363&bih=740
