Rule 8 - Contour lines create V-patterns when they cross a stream. The tip of the VALWAYS points uphill. Question 11: The contour interval here is 20 feet, and these contour lines are crossing a stream while making a " V " shape. The " V " is pointing uphill (the " V " always points uphill). This means that the stream's water is flowing in the opposite direction. If the "V's" are pointed northwest, which direction i the stream flowing?
