Symbolism[]

The focal point of this design centers on an iconic white mountain range that symbolizes the snowy Wasatch Mountains loved by Ogden residents. This three-peak mountain range is set in a dark blue circle that creates a high-contrast image to draw the eye into the design. A dark blue triangle is centered below the tallest peak. This represents the individual or the family that is here in Ogden. The dark blue circle creates the letter “O” for “Ogden.” Symbolically an “O” resembles community, connection, or a collection of people. The mountain range breaking outside 2 the “O” signifies the welcoming and inclusive nature of the people that live in Ogden and the culture of tourism. The colors match the color scheme of the brand identity for Ogden. Blue in flag design can represent freedom and determination, with the white symbolizing a sense of peace and harmony.
