The Colorado state flag was first designed by Andrew Carlisle Johnson in 1911, but the precise layout, shape dimensions, and shades of each hue weren’t officially nailed down until the current iteration was adopted on March 31, 1964.

Each color has special significance: the red “C” for the state’s name derived from the Spanish word for red, blue stripes for our expansive skies, and a single white stripe symbolizing both the snow-capped Rocky Mountains and silver mining.

Another aspect of the state’s mining history is represented by the gold circle, which nods to the gold rush and our 300 days (give or take) of sunshine. We fly several at History Colorado since we’re kind of big fans of the Centennial State.
