Is it possible to set the line color of just one specific contour line when using contourf? In the attached figure? I would like to highlight the 150 contour by making it a different color, thickness, and maybe line type.

Use contour again
hold on
contour(x,y,z,[150 150],'y','linew',2)
hold off

Create contour for levels you want
contour(x,y,z,[0 50 100 200 250 300],'showtext','on')
Create contour for '150' level separately with label
hold on
conttour(x,y,z,[150 150],'showtext','on')
hold off
