Answer:

Going down Burr Hill; the contour lines are close together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between Points A and C, the steepest part is going down Burr Hill.

I know that, because the contour lines are so close together.

That means your vertical descent is quite steep compared to the distance you cover horizontally.
