Description |
Design: a red-rock/orange beehive atop the white silhouette of a Sego Lilly on a field of turquoise blue. Meaning: the beehive represents the heritage of the early Mormon settlers, while its red-rock/orange color represents the unique beauty of southern Utah's landscape; the Sego Lilly represents the vibrant bio-diversity of our Great Basin flora and fauna and it is white to represent Utah's snow-capped mountains and winter sporting culture; the field of blue represents the famous Great Salt Lake, while the particular shade of turquoise blue represents the local Native American heritage. |
