Mammut teams up with accomplished mountain climber and guide Lindsey Hamm
Hamm partners with the brand because of its long legacy of engineering performance gear for the mountains
WILLISTON, Vermont (Feb 8, 2024) – Leading performance mountain equipment manufacturer for more than 160-years, Mammut welcomes Lindsey Hamm to its roster of elite mountain athletes. Hamm, an American Mountain Guide Association (AMGA) certified guide, has traveled the world establishing routes in Zanskar, India and Pakistan.
In addition to her passion for the mountains - and good jokes - Lindsey has goals of changing the culture of climbing to be more inclusive, and to help create inroads for people from all backgrounds to get into climbing. Hamm is preparing for a third season in Pakistan's Charakusa Valley. The upcoming expedition, aimed at achieving an ambitious alpine objective, will also see the creation of a short film dedicated to friends she has lost to the mountains, and to a close friend and guide who lost his battle to cancer. This project is a testament to Hamm's commitment to not only pursuing her climbing goals but also inspiring and motivating the wider climbing and outdoor community.
"We are delighted to welcome Lindsey to the Mammut team. Her passion for mountain sports and the outdoors reflects our values. Lindsey inspires us to appreciate the beauty and challenges of the mountains and to surpass ourselves in the process. Lindsey completes the Mammut athlete team, where she will also contribute to product development together with other professional alpinists such as Stephan Siegrist, Jonas Schild, Nico Hojac and Marek Holecek." _Harald Schreiber, Head of Corporate Communications at Mammut.
Lindsey will be deeply involved in shaping the future of Mammut's gear, bringing her on-the-mountain experience and technical knowledge to the product development team. Her feedback will be instrumental in ensuring our equipment meets the highest standards of performance and safety. Beyond product development, Lindsey will be a key figure in Mammut's community engagement, participating in events and contributing to visual campaigns while helping to inspire a growing mountain community in North America.
"Partnering with Mammut is an honor and an exciting progression in my career," said Lindsey Hamm, Mammut Athlete. “I chose to partner with Mammut because of its deep roots within the mountains. Their team consists of hardworking humans who have engineered the best products with functionality and performance in every piece.”
