- Ray Peck
- He was born and raised in Routt County, Colorado where he was a supervisor for the Forest Service in the Routt National Forest. He later worked for 25 years as a forest supervisor in the Grand Mesa National Forest, before retiring in 1946. According to Al Look, Peck hired John Otto to break trails on the Grand Mesa during the summers, when it was too hot to work on the Colorado National Monument. He built the Wild Rose Trail and helped with Land's End Road, among other endeavors. Peck tried establishing a ski run on the south slope of the Grand Mesa, along Land's End Road. However, due to the sun, the area did not keep snow on it long enough to be maintained as a proper ski run. He built a ski jump out of dirt near the bottom of the road.
