Himalayan guide (6)
I believe the answer is:
sherpa
'himalayan guide' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for sherpa that I've seen before include "Experienced climber" , "Phrase for a native Himalayan climber" , "Nepal-Tibet native" , "Such as Tensing_Norgay" , "Highly competent guide" .)
