A hill with a steep side is called a bluff. Bluffs can be found along coastlines or riverbanks, and they often offer scenic views due to their height and steepness.
A steep hill with a flat top that stands alone is called a "mesa." Mesas are typically found in arid or semi-arid regions and are characterized by their steep sides and broad, flat summits. They are formed through the process of erosion, where softer rock layers are worn away, leaving the harder rock on top intact.
Mycenae was built as a fortified citadel on a steep hill. It was strategically positioned to provide defense and control over the surrounding region.
To determine if the hill is steep or gradual, one would need to assess its slope. A steep hill has a sharp incline, making it difficult to climb, while a gradual hill has a more gentle slope, allowing for easier ascent. The steepness can often be measured in degrees or by comparing the rise to the run. Without specific measurements or descriptions, it's hard to categorize the hill accurately.

A hill has steep sides because of how the hill formed it formed with steep sides. I don't agree. Hills have steep sides because of the Earth's plates. When the plates push against each other, they sometimes push up, creating a hill or a mountain. Whether the hill has steep sides or not depends on the factors such as weathering and erosion, and on quite simply how it forms.

Butte
An abruptly raised hill is called a bluff. It is a steep cliff, bank, or promontory.
A steep-sided hill or mountain that stands alone and is usually smaller than a mesa is called a butte.
A steep hill with a flat top that stands alone is called a mesa. This geological formation is typically found in arid regions and is characterized by its distinct flat summit and steep sides. Mesas are created through erosion and weathering processes over millions of years.
That was a very steep hill!
The bright green hill was very,very steep therefore i didn't run down the hill.
You can save gas driving a steep hill by driving the car at a lower RPM.
A table-shaped hill with a flat top and steep sides is typically called a mesa. Mesas are found in arid and semi-arid regions and are formed through erosion processes exposing resistant rock layers. They are often distinctive landforms in desert landscapes.
It depends how steep the hill is if it isn't very steep then they should b fine but I wouldn't recommend it if the hill is very steep
