Rajan Gurung
Ghandruk Village, Annapurna
Rajan grew up at 2,012m in Ghandruk, one of the villages on the Annapurna Base Camp route. He knows the trail the way most people know their street — every switchback, every teahouse family, every microclimate. With 300+ expeditions led and wilderness first-aid certification from the Nepal Mountaineering Association, he is the guide your safety depends on at altitude. His rule: “We descend if in doubt. The summit will still be there.” In 15 years he has never broken it.
