Coyote Butte North - The Wave Main Entrance

Arriving at the entrance and setting your eyes for the first time on the amazing colorful strations is a shock to the system After heavy thunderstorms, a pool may be present at the entrance, providing an opportunity for shooting superb reflections as long as there is no wind and the water is still clear.
Please take a moment to consider that tens of thousands of people from all over the world dream of seeing the Wave and the vast majority will never make it. It’s an incredible privilege to experience the Wave and it's up to you to preserve it for those who will follow. Be respectful of this pristine site. You won’t need boots, wear lightweight footwear that won't leave marks. Avoid walking on the thin ribs and ledges of sandstone that make the Wave so special. Also, be careful where you place your tripod, if you carry one.
