Tibetan mountain guide (6)

I believe the answer is:

sherpa

(Other definitions for sherpa that I've seen before include "Skilled mountaineer of the Himalayas" , "Skilled Himalayan mountaineer" , "Such as Tensing_Norgay" , "High-up employee" , "guide to range" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
