First of all, you need to make the mountain without the contour lines with the sandbox tools,

Then, move the whole mountain above the ground say, 6". Then, make a huge rectangle quite a bit bigger then your mountain, then make the rectangle a component, copy it up about 1-50' (Making an array) depending on the size of your mountain until you can't see the top of the highest peak, and select the mountain and all of the rect components, and run Intersect With Model. Then, delete the components, and move the mountain, and the newly created contour lines, back to their original spots. Done!
