Which alternatives, camps and western continuations are modeled?

gap · gap-taboose-route-limits

The entire named eastern trailhead-to-pass route and separate US 395 road approach are connected. Intermediate campsite spurs, crossing positions, alternate trails and the western JMT network are not modeled. The NPS stock atlas shows west-side branching; this batch does not choose an onward branch or infer a Bench Lake facility visit.

Open question. The following evidence does not resolve this gap. Use the recorded question and reason to understand what needs confirmation.
