About This Mountain
Yunfeng (3564m) is a fold mountain in Taiwan, Taiwan. Grade 4/5: technical ascent requiring mountaineering skills and equipment. Formed by tectonic compression, it displays layered rock strata typical of fold ranges. Climbers require glacier travel and fixed-rope technique for a safe ascent.
The topographic contour map of Yunfeng (3564m) shows elongated parallel contours following the ridge axis. Contour lines are drawn at 100m intervals, with index contours (thicker lines) every 500m. The hypsometric color scale ranges from green (lower elevations) through yellow and orange to white (highest elevations near the 3,564m summit).
Elevation Profile
The east–west elevation profile of Yunfeng (3564m) shows the terrain cross-section through the summit at 3,564m. The color gradient transitions from green (valley floor) to white (summit zone), with the red summit marker indicating the peak.
Frequently Asked Questions
The contour map uses a hypsometric color scale where green represents lower elevations, yellow and orange indicate mid-range altitudes, and white marks the highest zones near the summit. Thicker contour lines (index contours) are drawn at wider intervals to help you quickly estimate elevation.
The contour map of Yunfeng (3564m) uses a 100m contour interval. This means each line represents a 100m change in elevation. Closely spaced contours indicate steeper terrain, while widely spaced contours show gentler slopes.
The elevation profile is a cross-section through Yunfeng (3564m) from west to east, passing through the summit at 3,564m. It reveals the mountain's shape, steepness, and relative height compared to the surrounding terrain. The horizontal axis shows distance in kilometers from the peak.
Yunfeng (3564m) was formed by tectonic folding, which compressed rock layers into long, parallel ridges. The contour map shows elongated lines that follow the axis of the fold, rather than circular patterns.
