What sort of mileage could you expect from the compass tyres? High end, race tyre sort of distance or a bit longer than that? Thinking of the snoqualmie pass but would want them to last until spring

If you choose high volume tyres, it seems that they last longer than expected.
I have a pair of Rattrap pass EL (26 inch, 54mm), I have ridden around 4500 km on them (including loaded touring), and the central ridges (?) have just began to fade.

That my experiences too, I managed a little over 10,000km with the old Grand Bois Hetres which were made in the same factory.
