Mani Bhagawat

I went on the Annapurna trek recently with another trekker and a guide we hired from our hostel. On the first day of hiking, we ran into two other hikers who had hired Mani as their guide. For the rest of the trip, our two groups essentially merged and I got to know Mani quite well. He is probably the most humble man I have met and he guides with compassion and knowledge. Everytime I met up with his two trekkers, they would talk about all the things they had learned from Mani along the way. He has gentle way about him and was great about keeping his trekkers safe. I met a lot of other groups a long the trek and was always sad for them and their guides. Mani is of top quality and I alread miss his pressence on the trail. I can't give any compliment higher than that.
