The color orange stands for joy, health, and freedom. The blue stands for peace and unity. The Delicate Arch stands for the national parks in Utah. The beehive stands for the Deseret past of Utah. The Native American headdress resembles all the tribes of Utah. The American flags represent that Utah is still American, and the star below the beehive stands for the star Utah added to the American flag. The mountains represent all the beautiful mountains in Utah. The years on the flag resemble when the pioneers came to Utah (1847), and the year 1896 stands for when Utah was established. |
