Glimpses of Installation in Selected Schools of Uttarakhand

Some of the schools where team Routes 2 Roots has managed to successfully reach and provide IFPs are in a famous location knows as Auli. Best known as the skiing paradise of India where tourists from across the world vacation, Auli is nestled in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand and is at an altitude of 8200 feet above sea level. The team braved the weather conditions and challenges in the area surrounded by Nanda Devi and Nar Parvat mountains, which make the terrain harsh.

Another tricky location visited by the NGO’s team among others was Kedarnath, located in the Himalayas at an altitude of 11755 feet above sea level. Flanked by snow-peaked mountains and a glacier, the closest road to Kedarnath is 16 km away from it. Due to a lack of proper motorable roads, the car of Routes 2 Roots’ technical staff fell into a river on its way, causing damage to the vehicle, just about sparing the lives of the passengers in it. Furthermore, heavy pilgrimage rush in the area resulting in choked roads caused delays and posed more challenges on the way.
