What we could not find
9 gapsA gap is not a fact. It means we looked and found no source.
- Highway numbers NH 107, NH 34 and NH 134 come from their own encyclopedia pages, which were opened; no official source was used.
- 2026 closing dates had not been declared by 28 September 2026; only tentative dates on operator sites were found.
- No source says whether motorcycles must register on the green card portal or only on the tourism portal; the official pages do not mention two-wheelers.
- The night travel ban is known from news reports, which disagree on the hours; the government order was not found.
- Who announces the Gangotri and Yamunotri dates was not sourced.
- Uttarakhand green cess: the exemption for two-wheelers is reported by two news outlets; no Transport Department order or official page was found.
- Shrine dates not sourced on an opened page: 2022 October closings of Kedarnath, Yamunotri and Gangotri; 2023 openings and closings of Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri; 2024 Badrinath opening. The 2022 openings come from an operator page only.
- Only one rider video found. Its title and channel were read from the video page; filming date and motorcycle are not confirmed.
- Some stretch distances are doubtful. The open map may not know the road riders use, so the routing service went the long way round.
