Your Snowman's Trek Team
We are continuously working towards improving the on-the-trek facilities and services to make your trekking as luxurious/comfortable and memorable experience as it possibly can. However, there are lot of challenges especially when trekking on Himalayan Mountains with unforgiving terrains, high altitude with less oxygen and long walk to reach the campsite. Therefore, it's crucial to have a good team not who are not only experienced but who could understand the need and comfort.

Nim Dorji, Trekking Chef
50 years old Dorji is a father of two daughters and his wife is a farmer and also a wonderful cook at home.
Mr. Dorji is a trekking chef certified by Tourism Council of Bhutan and has been working for the last 23 years. He can read the mountains of Bhutan like a back of his hand and very popular among the trekkers for his relentless effort in preparing varieties of food on the mountains and his focus is on ”right food” with “right energy” for the trekkers.
In his career, he successfully did snowman trek for 3 times and failed once because of weather where he had to return after the 5th night camp. For a challenging trek as Snowman Trek and through such unforgiving Himalayan mountains, he thinks the most important is food, feet and the trekking team and therefore, he gives priority in selecting his own dedicated and experienced team for all the treks he agrees to undertake.
He is responsible to manage the kitchen throughout the trek, serve good and nutritious food not only to the guest but also to the guide, helpers and the horsemen.
