Why is the lower part in red?

It represents the blood that will be spilled in Utah's conquest for world domination.

In all seriousness, it's meant to evoke a rocky canyon. Additionally, the white is meant to be mountains (hence the shape), and the blue is sky.

Ah yeah I see it now! That's probably why the middle part is slanting down. Thanks for answering!

For the blood of Utah's enemies.

I'm from Utah and can confirm that the color red does NOT represent the blood of our enemies. Not unless you really piss us off anyway.
