          The area in the maps above is a portion of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California. I chose this area because there are many peaks and a valley area, which demonstrates the digital elevation models in ArcGIS nicely. The varied elevation can be seen seen in the 3d model. I was also surprised at how steep some of the peaks are in the 3d model.
