We Lost our Bag with Wallets during our road trip to Chopta and a Mountain guy came 20KM to return

Tripoto
4th Dec 2016

The story begins when we left from Delhi for an amazing trip to Chopta and Tungnath Trek. By mistake we headed to wrong chopta which Google Map was showing to us. (please note there are 2 choptas in Uttrakhand)

We were on bike (bullet), so we stopped on the way and called up a local person from Chopta. At the time of call we kept our bag on a stone and forget it. (which has our wallets, id, money (7-10 K cash) everything)..We didn't notice and keep going.. Got a call from unknown number who told us about our bag and wallets.. So fortunate to meet such a peopled from Mountains. Thanks to Navin & Anoop (School Teachers in Rudraprayag) For returning our bags & to come 20 Km for us.
