Here is the third map for week 3. It uses a raster layer, with elevation indicated by darker color. Sort of a parallel to ocean depth maps (deeper water is darker). I prefer the Stretched presentation for its visual impact; Classified is fine for statistical analysis, but the gradations are too severe, visually.
