The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗The community was originally called "Monument Peak," but was changed to the current name after 1900 for reasons no longer known, although probably related to the name of (or renaming to) Brian Head (mountain), in nearby Dixie National Forest.
In 1964, the Brian Head Resort opened. Development of the Aspen Meadows area is currently projected to double the size of the town.
