Activity 26 – Boomtown Topography 1) What is the contour interval in the topographical maps of Boomtown? 3) Look at the maps of the 3 locations in Boomtown. A) Which of the 3 locations is the most stable? B) Which of the 3 locations is the least stable? C) Explain the evidence that supports your answers to 3a and 3b above. Stable/Stability – means which area in Boomtown has undergone the LEAST amount of change. 4) Do the maps indicate possible problems for building at any of the possible locations?
