A review of the route agreement, repair notices and the two public marker boards finds a gap between the total in the public summary and the conditions recorded at the shared path marker at Flint Ridge. The difference does not prove that anyone misstated the file. It shows what the public count leaves out: one notice board is inside the tunnel and the second faces the ridge.
The the route agreement, repair notices and the two public marker boards lists 95 repairs posted at both ends before a path closes; the previous window lists 95. Tikka Reed checked both against walk-through notes from every branch paired with the posted passage map. The source was checked against a second copy held by Niri Flint. No dated correction to either copy was present when the comparison closed.
Each town posts promptly at its own end. Travelers need the same closure time on both boards. The office has not supplied a separate measure that would settle the disagreement, so the two explanations remain competing accounts.
This report supports a narrower finding: the count is repeatable, but it is not enough to decide how each side posts a closure before travelers reach the shared marker.
The map crew posts an updated card while keeping the earlier copy linked. The responsible office has begun the follow-up set by the board, which adopted a marked route trial with a resident review date.
