Description |
"As the Crossroads of the West, Utah showcases a rich history of American and human progress (ie. Mormon Pioneers, trans-continental railroad, adventurers and explorers off to the Pacific Northwest and California gold, etc.). Utah also represents a coming together of many cultures, religions, and people with that pioneering spirit. This flag design pays homage to the trans-continental railroad, the adventuring spirit, as well as future progress (blue tracks) and the welding together of people and histories (red circle) united for freedom and progress (star). The star could easily be replaced with the State's beehive symbol of industry and cooperation." |
