Term
Hill
An area of raised ground with relief above its surroundings, generally smaller than a mountain. Shape and local context matter: there is no universal height that separates the two. Contours can show its summit, slopes and relative height.
What to look for
The Vale of Edale and Lose Hill, Peak District, England. A landscape photograph shows local relief, ridges and valley slopes.
