    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    Keep in mind Lester that the result will always look like a rice
    paddy field with steps unless you resort to lots of smoothing.  You
    will see theses steps with you do a shade model from the DEM. 
    That's a good way to see the problem.  It may no be visible by just
    looking at the DEM.   <br>
