Description |
This flag combines the iconic beehive in yellow with a sandstone arch in red. The five tiers of the red arch can symbolize the "Big 5" national parks of Utah, and speak to the importance of our unique natural landscapes, outdoor recreation, and tourism. The four tiers of the beehive represent the industriousness of the people who have called this land home: indigenous tribes, Mormon settlers, modern-day residents, and citizens of the future. |
