Best State Park?

Kodachrome Basin State Park 

When deciding on which state park to stay at, in this area, we were torn between Escalante Petrified Forest State Park and Kodachrome Basin State Park. We were happy with our decision to stay at Petrified Forest because of the adjacent reservoir for swimming and fishing and of course the chance to see a petrified forest. We did take a day trip to Kodachrome to check out the unusual spires (or pipes) that the park is known for and do some hiking. Kodachrome became a state park the year I was born and got it’s name from  Kodak’s popular film by that name mainly because of the multicolored monoliths nestled beneath bright blue skies; not the Paul Simon song.
