Open question. Linked evidence does not resolve this gap.

Sentinel Dome, Taft Point, and McGurk Meadow now have exact-endpoint route graphs. The combined loop, overlook, Mono Meadow, Dewey Point, Ostrander Lake, Panorama, and full Pohono connectors remain unresolved; nearby or unnamed lines are not joined without route-specific review.
