Passes were mapped based on the Nepal 1:25K and 1:50K topo sheets from pahar.in. Where ever a trail marked on the topo sheets hits the ridgeline (highest point) [whether on a saddle / peak / anywhere on ridge] is a mountain pass (refer wiki osm mountain_pass definition). Use of some of these trails (and passes) might be discontinued and therefore faded away just like any other trail or pass which was mapped in earlier years. If you verify on the ground that those passes no longer exist then they can be removed. I have explored and mapped hundreds of passes in the Indian Western himalayas through Survey of India maps in a similar manner

Same is mentioned on the Survey of I dia maps

My mistake. Removed natural and added a name tag

Understood Mateusz. Thanks

Which of the 7 paths or 3 routes are you referring to? I mostly added hiking routes on top of existing OSM trails to put a proper hiking network across Nepal

Updated as natural=cave_shelter and removed name

That's correct Mateusz. Earlier I was unaware that the name tag for simple objects (shelter, cave, spring, campsite...) can be omitted

I got inputs from Dave Brophy who did this traverse. Do you have a whatsapp nr or email ID on which I can share the notes so we can figure out the appropriate SAC rate for the route?

I received the GPS log from someone else. Will check with him if we can specific the SAC scale for this section.

That's correct. I extended the existing trail but was unaware that non-applicable tags would be taken forward. Can you help me in splitting the original trail and removing the tags? Not sure how to find the length of the original trail?
