Closely spaced contour lines on a map indicate a steep slope. Contour lines represent elevations on the map, and when these lines are close together, it means that the elevation changes rapidly over a short horizontal distance. Conversely, widely spaced contour lines indicate a gentle slope, where the elevation changes more gradually.
