The Wave Revisited
Last year, when Barb, Ron and Diana went to the Wave, it took 5 days to get a permit. This year we got one in 2 days. We must be getting luckier. Only 10 hiker permits are given out each day, via a lottery. It's a tough 3-mile hike, over sand and uneven rock, but well worth the effort. It's truly a photographers' paradise. The Wave is a group of 200,000-year-old petrified sand dunes, in Vermillion Cliffs National Monument.
We took time to see alot of the other rock formations outside the main part of the Wave. This one is called the Second Wave.

I know that Bloggers rarely get feedback. I read and appreciate all of your posts-including Kodgers...I love your Pics of the Wave, especially having studied a bit of Geology.
Enjoy, and as Lloyd says...Keep the Balance

Hi Diane,
if you ever get a chance to visit the wave again leave the wave east and go around toprock eastern side. There's a rock resembling a "Big Mac" like you've never seen before. Furthermore Top Rock is worth while a visit as well as there is a beautiful arch called Melody arch. The colors and textures in the rocks in the alcove on Toprock are one of the most beautiful I've ever seen.
