Hi,

The example is correct. A Crest Line does not create a Blind hex, unless 
the range between it and the firer is at least 5 hexes.

Hex V4 is only two hexes from W6 - hence no Blind hex is created.

See rule B10.23.

"10.23 BLIND HEXES: A lower level non-cliff Crest Line creates a Blind 
Hex to a higher level viewer only if that Crest Line is at least five 
hexes away from that viewer and the next hex along his LOS has a lower 
elevation than that of the Crest Line hex..."

Regards,
Klas
