Snowmobile routes, measured
Same rules as the drives and the hiking trails: line length from the mapped OpenStreetMap ways, elevation from terrain data, and the drive measured to where a truck and trailer actually get onto the railbed — not the nearest town. A flat railbed's flat profile is the information, not a defect. The overview — where the corridor meets each door, who grooms it — lives in the snowmobiling guide.

The mountains are not on this list — on purpose
The west-coast mountain riding riders actually prize — Jackson's Arm on White Bay, Blow Me Down, the Lewis Hills — is not in the open map, so it gets no page here. We do not invent a mountain route to fill the gap. Those stay a wanted contribution: one recorded GPX of a ridden loop turns local knowledge into a measured, credited page nobody else has drawn. Mountain terrain is avalanche terrain, and this is where the honest boundary matters: Avalanche Canada issues a seasonal forecast for the Long Range Mountains, including Gros Morne — and no Avalanche Canada source names Blow Me Down, the Lewis Hills or the Jackson's Arm / White Bay area as inside that forecast. Unless a ride falls within a live Long Range bulletin, no forecast covers it and the terrain judgment is the rider's. A page built from a contributed ride would name Avalanche Canada as the authority for that boundary, never assert a go/no-go of its own.
Grooming, open status, ice and passes belong to the federation, the clubs and the province — every route page links out for the day's truth and names the statute behind the rules of the road.
