Pasang Kambache Sherpa was a long time compadre of the famous Tibetologist David Snellgrove. Pasang collaborated with Snellgrove for more than 10 years in many researches around Nepal and Tibet. It was while in Kalimpong that malaria-stricken Snellgrove met Pasang and hired him as an expert of Tibetan language translator. Pasang studied horticulture in France and initiated the apple farming in Marpha and Thak Khola villages of Mustang. The very tempting apple orchards that you see nowadays can be said to be a direct impact of the works of Pasang Kambache Sherpa. Remember him when you take that delicious bite off of the apple pie.
