Kodachrome Basin is a popular state park located near Cannonville, Utah. The park was dubbed Kodachrome Basin by a National Geographic team in 1949 while using a new brand of Kodak color film. The park features a wide variety of spires or sandpipes. These chimney shaped towers of rock are thought to be remnants of spring vents filled with wind blown sedimentary rock powder that eventually hardened. The surrounding, soft Entrada sandstone has worn away, leaving the hardened rock chimney.
Background scenery is painted with multi-colored shades of white, pink, yellow and reds. These colors shift with the movement of the sun, presenting an ever-changing scenic backdrop.
