Description "Colors: Red represents courage; White represents integrity; Blue represents wisdom. The blue in the upper corners symbolize the wide open sky and space. The white central triangle reflects the snowy mountains. The lower red field, including the negative space created in it by the shield represents the red-rock formations. The shield and beehive are a connection to the past flag. The gray/silver shield symbolizes justice and safety while the gray/silver color pays homage to the mineral resources. The beehive continues the symbolism of industry and cooperation."
