Description |
The red mountain is representative of the red rock of southern Utah, and of the Wasatch mountains when bathed by the red sunlight at sunset. The white represents the "greatest snow on earth". The yellow stripe is reminiscent of our beehive symbology and reminds us of our motto of "industry". Utah is always seeking to improve - which is why all the lines point upwards in this design. The blue backdrop ties in our American colors and celebrates our many days of blue and sunny skies (even in the winter months). |
