Plotting topography in a cross section

Hi Grads users

I'm facing a problem in plotting a cross section. I'd like to plot
temperature in a vertical cross section and then overlay topography.
Topography is one of the output variables of our meteorological model
(no problem when plotting a x-y map). But when I try topo does not
appear, these are the commands I'm using

ga-> q file
File 1 : RAMS Output
   Descriptor: a-AS-2006-07-06-000000-g1.ctl
   Binary: ./a-AS-2006-07-06-000000-g1.gra
   Type = Gridded
   Xsize = 109  Ysize = 57  Zsize = 23  Tsize = 24
   Number of Variables = 6
     tempc 23 99 - RAMS : temperature [C]
     topo 1 99 - RAMS : topo [m]
     rain 23 99 - RAMS : rain mix ratio [g/kg]
     tke 23 99 - RAMS : turb kinetic energy [m2/s2]
     u 23 99 - RAMS : grid relative u [m/s]
     v 23 99 - RAMS : grid relative v [m/s]
ga-> c
ga-> set lat 37 42
LAT set to 37 42
ga-> set lon 0
LON set to 0.0470475 0.0470475
ga-> set z 1 22
LEV set to 57.267 14249.7
ga-> set gxout shaded tempc
ga-> d tempc
Contouring: -50 to 20 interval 10
ga-> set cint 50
cint = 50
ga-> d topo
Contouring: -0 to 1000 interval 50

But if I just try to plot topo (without setting z coordinate) the cross
section appears fine.

Thanks in advance
