The horizontal axis is the order of the route, not time: we have not confirmed this route's leg times against an official source. The ridge line simply joins the recorded points, so it does not show the real shape of the terrain. Total ascent is an approximation summed between those points. Yarigatake Sanso, Minamidake-goya have no confirmed elevation, so they are placed provisionally between the points either side.
