Byline

Desk byline for seed records. Named surveying editors replace this once a trail is verified.
Figures marked provisional are seed data and still need verification. Source and last-checked date sit under each cited value.
Altitude weather delta
High 3,648 m minus low 1,601 m is 2,047 m of relief on this record. A standard tropospheric lapse of 6.5 °C per 1,000 m implies about 13.3 °C cooler at the high point than the valley, all else equal.
That is a model (International Standard Atmosphere environmental lapse), not a forecast and not a trail-closure. Wind, snow, and storms stay in Hazards.

Ingested from OpenStreetMap relation 15937017 (ODbL). The mapped line is that geometry. Distance, ascent, descent, and high/low points are the Wave I-1 evidence-sheet figures (adjudicated 2026-09-18). Season and hazards were not sourced. Member ways are untagged for sac_scale; SAC stays ungraded. YDS is the site cross-walk, still provisional.
