A topographic map is a contour map that displays terrestrial elevation on a two- dimensional map. Above is a topographical map of Mount Marcy and its surrounding areas in New York State. The lines on the map represent the changes in elevation and shapes of the physical features like cliffs and ridges in the region. The closer together the steeper a feature is. Mount Marcy is the highest point on the map.
