Ensign Peak is the top in the foothills near downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. It's about a mile north of the State Capitol of Utah and sits just behind her. On July 26, 1847, Brigham Young and other early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) climbed this hill and gave it its present name. The hill has a religious significance in the history of the LDS Church and in its symbolism.
