Altitude weather delta

High 1,710 m minus low 138 m is 1,572 m of relief on this record. A standard tropospheric lapse of 6.5 °C per 1,000 m implies about 10.2 °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.

Stored distance is 9.31 km. The chart axis follows the DEM sample (12.55 km), not the published line length.

Ingested from OpenStreetMap relation 13650202 (ODbL). The mapped line is that geometry. Distance, ascent, descent, and high/low points are the evidence-sheet figures (adjudicated 2026-09-19). Season was not sourced. Member ways are untagged for sac_scale; SAC stays ungraded.

OSM 2D length is 9.31 km (OSM line, ODbL, relation 13650202, lastVerified 2026-09-19). Provisional — OSM line, no cited itinerary. MERGE page: Beedahalli 19856949 is an absorbed approach, not this measured Subramanya 13650202 line. Ingest stored assembly 12.9 km. The published figure is the evidence-sheet 9.31 km for relation 13650202.
