Description |
The blue represents Utah's spirit of inspiration and welcoming. The gray represents the steel of the railroad that connected us and the country years ago and represents the future of our connection with the rest of the world and the connections we can facilitate. The orange represents the mining past, including the many miners that moved to the state and helped build it to what it is today. The arch represents a bridge from the past to the future. The three peaks represent the people of Utah, united and strong. It could also represent some of the pioneer founders of the state through the three peaks of the Salt Lake City Temple. The sky represents freedom and the boundless opportunities that exist in Utah |
