What I learned during my first season as an actual FIS employee.
Probably the most controversial interview I've done... or will do... hopefully.
Ahmet came on the show and it was a mix of really light hearted storytelling to some excellent insights on sponsor pay & commitments.

Brian Head, located nearly 45 minutes north of Cedar City, Utah, has claimed to be one of the top resorts of Utah. In this review, I will discuss why I believe Brian Head is mediocre when it comes to resorts and certainly not the best in Utah.
This review is simply to share opinion, not to bash on the resort in any way.
