Canyonlands National Park

Canyonlands National Park, established in 1964, showcases a stunning display of geological history that spans hundreds of millions of years.  Its deep history started with the ancient oceans, rivers, and deserts which covered the region.  The sand deposits became compressed forming the reddish Navajo Sandstone.  Twenty million years ago, with the tectonic uplift of the Colorado Plateau, the erosional forces of the Colorado and Green Rivers gave the park its distinctive landscape of canyons, mesas, and buttes.  Today, the park is a photographer's paradise where fine art photography immortalizes the memories of your visit.
