Marmot is an outdoor clothing and sporting goods company founded in 1974 as Marmot Mountain Works. The company was founded in Grand Junction, Colorado by local resident Tom Boyce and two University of California, Santa Cruz students, David Huntley and Eric Reynolds, who shared the common goal of making their own mountaineering equipment.
The Himalayan marmot, like all other marmots, is active during the day, generally retreating into its burrows when the surface temperature rises or falls outside of the 8 to 12 degrees Celsius range. Over the winter months, from late September until the following April, the Himalayan marmot hibernates.
