The list of 16 winners is on the pdf, and the resulting seal and flag are reported to be:

The following have been incorporated in the City Seal "City of Sun Valley" (Sun Valley), Ore Cart (Mining), The "Union Pacific" Railroad Train(1936-64) The first Chairlift, Bald Mountain, Alpine Skis (Skiing), Red Barn,1947, Elk (Wildlife), Sun and Blue Skies, Lupine (Wildflowers, Nature), Fly Fishing (Sports, Recreational Activities).
