Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Elevation Changes

The map shows contour lines with elevations marked at 20 ft intervals.
"E" is at 80 ft and "Z" is at 100 ft.

Step 2: Analyze the Route from "E" to "Z"

Moving from "E" to "Z" involves crossing contour lines from 80 ft to 100 ft.
This indicates an uphill route.

Step 3: Compare with Other Routes

The other options mention routes to the beach, which is at 0 ft.
The route from "E" to "Z" does not involve going to the beach but rather going uphill.
