How to get Permits for The Wave, Arizona - Coyote Buttes North

You've seen the pictures and are ready to plan a trip to the Wave in Arizona. But one thing stands in your way; the infamous permit system.

I've been there. I've gotten tough permits before, but getting Wave permits was by far the most difficult. There's no secret formula. There's no guarantee. But there are ways to improve your chances. After having so much trouble myself, I figured I would put together a video to try to pass on my lessons learned to you.

The Wave is worth it. Tina and I agree that it is our favorite day hike so far. It's absolutely amazing. Hopefully this video helps you get that infamous permit and experience it yourself.
