Sheldon Barker · Answer 1

The contour lines on a mountain are going to be much closer together, since the elevation changes much quicker than in a flat valley, where the contour lines will be further apart because there isn't much elevation change.

Shyanne Cox · Answer 2

You have elevation differences on mountains and elevation differences in the valley. The valley is just not as pronounced.
