A 16:9 photograph of Kodachrome Basin, a spectacle of towering sandstone chimneys that change colour and shade with the mood of the day, from red-tinged spires against a blue sky to soft evening light descending over the desert.
This inspiration for colour and contrast prompted the National Geographic Society in 1949, with the permission of the Kodak Film Corp, to name the park Kodachrome.
Nearly 70 monolithic spires, some as tall as 50 metres, protrude from the valley or protrude from the sandstone. These natural spires stand like stone sentinels overlooking the park, creating a backdrop that stimulates the senses and sparks the imagination. The redrock and semi-desert climate make this state park attractive to visitors all year round.
