Contour lines on a topographic map indicate elevation and show the shape of the land. They connect points of equal elevation and help visualize the terrain's steepness and slope. Closer contour lines indicate steep terrain, while spaced-out lines represent flat or gradual slopes.
Contour lines that touch or overlap on a topographic map indicate a
On a topographic map, contour lines that are closer together indicate a steeper slope.
The heaviest contour lines on a topographic map indicate the highest elevation on the map. These lines represent the peaks of mountains, hills, or other elevated land features.
Contour lines that touch or overlap on a topographic map indicate a sharp change in elevation, representing a steep slope or a vertical feature like a cliff or a ridge. These clustered contour lines help visualize the terrain's three-dimensional shape and can warn hikers of challenging topography.
Contour lines that are close together indicate steep terrain or a rapid change in elevation. The closer the contour lines are, the steeper the slope.

Closely spaced contour line on a topographic map shows that the land is steep.
it connects to the points of Hawaii and Alaska
Hachured contour lines are contour lines with ticks pointing downslope that indicate a depression on a topographic map.
Contour lines that are close together on a topographic map indicate an area of steep slope. If they essentially overlap you have a cliff.
