Description |
The shape is a snowflake on first view, but it is formed on a hexagon - the geometry of honeybees for the beehive state. The shape can also be viewed as circled people joining together, symbolizing the unification of various peoples within Utah. A blue core symbolizes the sky, lakes, and the integrity and faith of Utahns. The white for salt and snow. The orange-red field is the color of Utah's brilliant desert landscapes and represents the passion of industrious Utah. |
