New results in the investigation of the relief elements orientation statistical description for the elements of different size (scale) are presented. Our analysis show that there are «special scales». At passing to those scales relief elements orientation changes appreciably (jumps) more often then at the other scales. This situation is detected in different Earth regions and in all those regions in summary. Measures for objective results detection are described. Proper results interpretation is discussed.
