Answer: Increases

Step-by-step explanation:

In a windy day, if some decides to move a place that is situated at a high altitude region then the intensity of wind will increase. The is because upto a certain height the wind flow increases.

This is because in the middle latitudes the pressure gradient, especially in the middle latitudes, the pressure gradient increases with height.

Hence, at the top of Canyon the intensity of wind will increase.
