Owners
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort thrives as one of the only independently owned premier ski resorts - thanks to the Kemmerer Family, whose enduring commitment to Wyoming is intertwined in the state's history.
Jay Kemmerer, Connie Kemmerer and Betty Kemmerer Gray's ties to Wyoming date back to the turn of the century, when their great-grandfather founded a southwest Wyoming town that today bears the family name. The family's business interests in coal mining and banking started in 1897 and prospered through the 1900s.
Founders
Paul McCollister and Alex Morley: Partners, Developers and Friends
Born in 1915, Paul McCollister graduated from Stanford University with degrees in sociology and economics (hence Jackson Hole's alignment with the color red). Retiring at the age of 42 from a successful career in radio advertising, he then spent a year skiing the world-famous resorts of Europe and lived as a gentleman rancher on a 390-acre spread in Teton County, Wyo.
