1. 3500 feet
2. 3700 feet
3. 3600 feet
4. You would be walking uphill. The elevation at point A is 3500 feet, the elevation at Snapper Creek (where line A-B crosses it) is 3600 feet, and the elevation at point B is 3700 feet. Since you are moving from a lower elevation to a higher elevation, you are walking uphill.
5. 3800 feet
6. 3900 feet
7. 3900 feet
8. You would be walking both downhill and uphill. The elevation at point X is 3900 feet, the elevation at point Y is 3900 feet, but the elevation along the path between them dips below 3900 feet (to 3800 feet). Therefore, you walk downhill from X to the lowest point on the path, then uphill from that lowest point to Y.
9. 1040 meters
10. 1040 meters
