While not of great absolute elevation ( the mountain is more than lower than Granite Peak, the highest peak in Montana ), Mount Cleveland is notable for its large, steep rise above local terrain.

Though not exceptional in terms of absolute elevation, Mount Salisbury does possess great vertical relief over local terrain : for example, the southwest side of the mountain drops over to the Johns Hopkins Glacier in only five miles.

Below Lake Akkul'( its absolute elevation is 3, 140 m ), the longitudinal profile undergoes another sharp drop because a large mountainous obstruction damming the lake and, perhaps, because of moraines buried under the obstruction.

Also, changing absolute elevation of the pipe ( such as following the contour of a hill, or just changing the depth that the pipe is buried ) can decrease pressure . talk ) 01 : 48, 31 December 2008 ( UTC)

This concept explains why travel on terrain which has more frequent and sharp " ups-and-downs ", or is generally more rugged, is usually significantly more strenuous even if the highest absolute elevation reached on any peak is not very great.
