Week 7: DEM

      The area I have chosen is the Big Bear Lake Area. I have chosen this because this weekend will be the first time I go skiing and my first experience will be at the Big Bear Mountains. For this reason, I decided it would be a good idea to look at the local elevations of the mountains. The following is the information retrieved from the original source.
      Extent: Top: 34.4072222213; Left: -116.839166668; Right: -116.465000001; Bottom: 34.2069444435;
     Spatial Reference: GCS North American 1983
     Angular Unit: Degree (0.0174532925199433)
     Datum: D_North_American_1983
     It is relieving to see that the mountains are not as steep as I thought. There are no very steep slopes; Rather, one can gradually climb up or glide down the slope. I guess this would be good for a beginner.
