Lab 6: DEMs in ArcGIS

The area that I looked at for this lab is a mountainous area just south of Palm Dessert and east of Temecula. While most of the terrain is mountainous, the northeast corner is flat because of where the dessert begins. There is also a very large peak directly in the middle of my map. This was a very good area to use for the lab because of the large variations in elevation and slopes. The extent of the area is N 33.6525 W 116.63389 on the northwest corner to N 33.3825 W 116.20111 on the southeast corner. The geographic coordinate system is the North American 1983.
