Historical mountain figures awaiting field-level confirmation: Base elevation (ft), Summit elevation (ft), Longest run (mi).

Individual listings retain their own sources and check dates. A source check covers only the named details; it does not confirm availability. Snowfall averages describe climate, not a forecast.

Official pages differ on the run count. Use the current trail map for the layout rather than treating the historical total as definitive.

New 2026–27 hours start at 09:00 daily; during night operations close is 21:00 Sunday–Thursday and 22:00 Friday–Saturday. A single daily closing time would be misleading.
