Altitude weather delta
High 2,731 m minus low 1,207 m is 1,524 m of relief on this record. A standard tropospheric lapse of 6.5 °C per 1,000 m implies about 9.9 °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 72.3 km. The chart axis follows the DEM sample (66.52 km), not the published line length.
Ingested from OpenStreetMap relation 14240750 (ODbL). The mapped line and 2D length are derived from that geometry. Ascent, descent, and high/low points are sampled from Copernicus GLO-30 (copernicus-dem:glo-30) and remain provisional. Water, permits, and hazards were not taken from OSM tags and must be verified.
OSM 2D length is 72.3 km (relation 14240750; network=rwn, operator=Wanderland Schweiz, ref=25). lengthKm is verified: 72.3 km is 1.50% under the official 73.4 km (https://www.schweizmobil.ch/en/hiking-in-switzerland/route-25; ch.astra.wanderland Route attributes (opendata.swiss langsamverkehr-wanderland-schweiz, dataset 2026-02-25, parsed 2026-09-09)). Official km is the ±3% cross-check, not this DataPoint.
DEM high 2,731 m. GLO-30 cumulative ascent 3,484 m is the same order as the official 4,076 m figure (ch.astra.wanderland Route attributes (opendata.swiss langsamverkehr-wanderland-schweiz, dataset 2026-02-25, parsed 2026-09-09)). High point left as Copernicus.
Water was not mapped to named WaterSource points (no honest atFraction). Villages and inns exist; they were not positioned from an official named list this pass.
