Ensign Peak (/ˈɛnsaɪn/ EN-syne) is a peak in the foothills near downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. It is approximately one mile (1.6 km) north of the Utah State Capitol and sits almost directly behind it. 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 to survey the Salt Lake Valley. The hill has religious significance in LDS Church history, as Brigham Young remarked on that day that the peak was a fitting place to "set up an ensign" (Isaiah 11:12).
