You may OC "Utah Unloaded" from 18 to 21 as you are not legally able to apply for a permit.

You might want to consider a Maine permit, which you can get at 18 and has reciprocity with Utah. Otherwise, just keep it in the open, away from school zones and Utah Unloaded.

If you have more Qs, or need more clarification, please ask.

P.S. The map must be wrong. It could be based on BCI information which is incomplete and somewhat misleading.

Here is the reason the map is the way it is. For the open carry map, "open carry" is defined as openly carrying a loaded firearm on foot or in a vehicle.

Since you need a permit to carry loaded, the state is green.
And since you need to be 21 to obtain a Utah permit, the age to OC map says 21.
