I am trying to create a surface with presentable counters. Notice in the picture attached how the minor contour just drops off. I have tried deleting lines and add points and not really getting anywhere. The elevations around the top vary note. Also when I tried to weed the feature line the drawing tends to crash.
If the upper portion of you imiage is outside the limits of your survey you should go to the Surface Properties - Definition Tab and set the Use maximum triangle length to Yes and set a comfortable length based on your data spacing. I usually start with 100 and work from there. If your issue is the pull that is happening then I might consider deleting that point from the surface using the Surface Edits with the points and triangles on.

the elevation values would not matter it where they are and how they relate to the others. I can see where I circle something is getting fouled up.
possible culprit another feature line under the design that is in the same site. Lets see the elevation editor of the toe..
can you post the file?

you have something weird going on with your feature line for top of slope
Triangle are PVI circle are elevation point. Green triangles and circles are shared point with other feature lines in the same site. white triangle mean another feature line is crossing . I cannot find these shared feature line points or crossing. did you create the top of slope FL from drawing objects? if yes there may have been overlapping geometry that is internally effecting the feature line

Move it to a different site and you will see the split points and shared point marks go away. this has to be effecting the pond.
The stepped offset was from the Grading FL? That should yields a clean FL with no effects from other FL.. This is puzzling

thats what I figured. I cant put my finger on anything other then the shared and split points in the top of slope feature line.
part of wants to blame the geometry ( please take no offense ) When I see grading projection at inside corner overlap I get worried. I try to get my geometry curved in these area that would project to a smooth inside radius. Also I try to minimize the elevation points. for instance in the lower left of the pond the elevation points are very clustered together . I try to normalize the elevations so the grading isn't make so many different slope projections so close together.
I thing the geometry of this feature line is collapsing on it self when projected and stepped offset.

you are a little short of EG on the east side
I did a redo geometry of the feature lines and things look pretty good except the tie to existing on the east side
