Ans 2) The peak elevation of poorman hill is 6485 feet as it can easily seen in the map that the highest contour value us 6485 feet. Poorman hill is lying in this contour value.

Ans 3) It is clearly seen and observed from the map that the elevation of the poorman hill is about 6485 feet where as the elevation of the boulder creek present at the south of poorman hill is less than 6000 feet. Thus poorman hill has higher elevation as compared to bank of boulder creek.
