Source: TerraClimate 1991–2020 monthly averages. Averages for the area at each point’s elevation (4 km grid, corrected for height). Not a forecast or a report of current trail conditions. Snow at the high point is estimated with a simple snowpack model from these temperatures and precipitation, not observed; steep islands and high summits can hold more snow than it shows. Daylight is for the 15th of each month. Hut, transport and park seasons are separate: check them for your dates.
Geometry under review
Navigation and field downloads unavailableP10-C safety gate: the mapped GPX still has one unresolved approximately 3.6 km sparse segment, so continuous-route navigation, GPX download and offline use are disabled. The page stays available as a mapped route reference; field navigation returns only after a rendered comparison with a defensible source and any required repair.
