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!
