Description This flag was inspired by two main things that represent Utah, including the beehive/honeycombs and mountains. Utah is know as the beehive state because of it's community and how each person in Utah works together to support and help one another and to create a successful industry. I made it be the color of a beehive which is a orange yellow color. The mountains represent all the activities we can do in Utah's mountains like skiing. Utah is mostly know for it's amazing snow. These mountains form a big part of Utah's economy, bringing lots of tourists to come visit them. Utah is surrounded by these incredible mountains, which protects our state. The type of symbol that I used for the mountains is the Native American symbol for what means "Big Mountain". I have used the color blue to make the mountains, because it symbolizes justice, vigilance and perseverance.
