How the elevation gain was established
Outing: out-and-back outing from Paved trail entrance beside the parking area to End of the formal path at the lower riverfront lawn and back; 1.15 km along the mapped itinerary
Copernicus DEM 2021 GLO-90 via Open-Meteo (90 m resolution). v7-smoothed-ascent-1: interpolate retained terrain samples at 100 m spacing; apply one triangular 1:2:1 smoothing pass over ±100 m; preserve start, finish and documented turnaround heights; sum uphill excursions with a 5 m reversal threshold; round to nearest 10 m.
Approximate terrain-model ascent, not a field or GPS measurement. Coarse cells and smoothing can miss small climbs, switchbacks, structures and sharp terrain. Processing sensitivity is not a statistical confidence interval.

The hosted map shows about 5.3 km return along the Nechako River. This is longer than the City’s 500 m constructed park approach and should not inherit its accessibility description.
