Description of the flag

The Mora County flag can be seen at the (LA Daily Post [https://web.archive.org/web/20250125220250/https://ladailypost.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/first-photo.jpg]) (to the right). It uses the county logo on a white field, which appears to have been adopted around 2016. The latest usage of the previous flag I could find was from 2018. It depicts a cogwheel combined with the Zia sun symbol. In its inner circle, at the top are two blackberries; the county itself gets its name from the town of Mora, which in turn is from a historical name making reference to blackberries (Santa Gertrudis de lo de Mora), as they were apparently abundant along the river. Centered is the text "COUNTY OF MORA". At the sides are stalks of wheat for agriculture. In the lower section is a fish, and below the year 1835, when the Mexican government conceded the Mora Land Grant.

The flag is white, with an outline map of the county, and overlain on it a Zia symbol, with longer arms than in the state flag. In the center is the county name and the date 1835, and four objects of local significance.

Although there are not really any good images online, there is a thin blue border on the old Mora County flag (at least in the state capitol).
