Description |
The base of the design is the iconic red earth of Utah. Out of the earth comes five white peaks (made of hexagonal honeycomb shapes). The white symbolizes the purity of hart, the salt plains, and the best snow on earth. The five peaks are for the five indigenous tribes of Utah and the five national parks. The golden honeycomb charge is a nod to the famous beehive symbolism in a simple, elegant and flag-friendly way. |
