The mark consists of a stylized silhouette of Lake Tahoe filled with a stylized State of California bear flag pattern occupying the left half of the Lake Tahoe silhouette, the Bear Flag comprising a brown grizzly bear walking on a green mound of grass with the words "California Republic" located beneath the mound in black lettering and a red horizontal stripe below that. A red star looms above and to the left of the bear's head. The Bear Flag half has a white background. A stylized State of Nevada "Battle Born" flag pattern occupies the right half of the Lake Tahoe silhouette with a wreath of green sagebrush having yellow flowers cradling a silver star; a yellow banner lies above the wreath, the banner bearing the words "Battle Born" in black lettering. The word "Nevada" is presented in semi-circular yellow lettering below the star and between the sprays of the sagebrush wreath. The Battle Born flag has a blue background, which contrasts starkly with the white background of the Bear Flag and a stylized border shaped like the border between the states of California and Nevada separates the two stylized flag designs.
