Description "The abstract hive composed of five golden yellow lines signifies energy and wealth potential, gives a nod to the five main Native American tribes and alludes to the Beehive State of Utah. The white hexagon surrounding the hive symbolizes stability and industry. The white horizon line divides the calm (peaceful) turquoise blue sky from the deep orange earth that signifies courage and sacrifice. The use of orange and turquoise also hint at the Native American palette and would make the Utah flag unique and distinctive from the much-used standards of red and blue."
