Alaskan Scottish Club Tartan

- Rose
Rose reflects a winter sunset on Denali’s lofty top, a summer offer of shooting stars, and wild rose hips. - Green
Green suggests magnificent forests, short stalk sedge, lingonberry, and saxifrage. - Gold
Gold recalls the great North Star, the miners’ golden dream, tamarack, birch, and aspen mirrored in a stream. - White
The ice, the snow, the lights of the Auroras. - Blue
Blue is for the sky, forget-me-nots, the open sea, the deep cold azure of lakes, the glaciers’ mysterious hue and for the Scottish origins of many Alaskans.
