Our guide Krishna. He works for Apollo Excursions, a local guide company, that helped make the trip wonderful. You might also notice he's wearing a "Potts Drilling" baseball cap. Potts Drilling is my brother Dave's business, so I took a few of his caps along so he could do a little advertising in Solu Khumbu.
