Hi Shamim —

Comparing the trail maps and statistics of these four:

https://www.vancouvertrails.com/trails/garibaldi-lake/

https://www.alltrails.com/trail/canada/british-columbia/garibaldi-lake-trail

https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/track/727621f38918dfa270c7271fad912882/?layer=GaiaTopoRasterMeters

https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/track/6ca78c6284f82faba66df932261883e2/?layer=GaiaTopoRasterMeters

It looks like the statistics on the first one above (vancouvertrails) are wrong. The route on the alltrails map is clearly shorter than the other three, and it correctly shows a shorter distance and less ascent than my two gaiagps tracks. But vancouvertrails map shows a longer route (like my gaia routes) but its 18km length is the same as alltrails, and ascent is less than alltrails — must be wrong.
