Description |
Utah is named after The Ute Tribe and "UTE" means "People of the Mountains". I used mountains in the background. I used 5 peaks on the mountains to represent the 5 tribes. The mountians are purple because purple symbolizes spirituality & Utah was formed by a religious band. The elk brings streth, tendurance, patience & good luck. The elk is the state animal The Sego Lily is Utah's State flower. The clifornia Gull is Utah's State bird The sky is blue because duh, it's a sky. The sky is blue because blue represents open spaces & freedom & Mormons came To Utah for freedom |
