The Wave

It is an amazing rock formation in the rocky desert near the border between Arizona and Utah. It is famous for its colorful, undulating forms, and the rugged, trackless hike required to reach it. Only 20 people per day can visit this amazing place: ten of the permits are available in advance by an on-line lottery that is conducted four months before the month for which the permit is sought. The remaining ten permits are made available by lottery the day before one's intended hike. The best moment for photographing the wave is around noon. You have to leave early to Page (nearest town to the site), along a dirt road about 8.3 miles to the Wire Pass Trailhead, then start a quite strenuous hike of nearly 6-mile (9.7 km) climbing about 350 feet (110 m) in altitude. Temperatures in this area Typically climb above 100 ° F (38 ° C) in the summer, so it is best to start the hike early. Then, you can use all your creativity trying to capture the amazing lines and shadows of this amazing and remote rock formation.
