The Wave is one of the most iconic and difficult places to visit in Utah It is difficult not so much because of the terrain or hike length, but because of how hard it is to get a permit! It took me about 45 tries in the lottery, 85% of those in the advanced lottery, and 15% or so in the shorter-term daily lottery, to finally win a permit This was spread out over years as I would enter for a while, get frustrated and take a break, then inevitably start trying again The Wave is a small section of the larger Coyote Bu...

Been there 3 times, first time Zebra was completely dry, last two times it was full of water I have heard it usually is; and with recent wet weather in the area, will most likely be full when you go in the next week This video from fall 2014 with the wife and two kids 11 & 13 https://youtube/cGqziw4PM64 Mark 0:26 to 9:33 was our time doing Zebra The parking/TH is not marked, but it is just past a cattleguard, parking on right west side of HITR, cross the road to east and the trail is well established - careful t...

Still on the site, here:https://wwwroadtripryancom/go/t/utah/north-wash/happy-canyon-via-poison-springI have two different write-up since they are very different routes Yes, that area seems especially prone to errant cairns! Amazing petrified wood out there Glad to hear to spur road wasn't too bad I hope to get back out there this fall 

Anchors still look good on this route, water level is low right now so first two potholes were completely dry, the final one before the first rappel is still a swimmer but we were able to leap to the ledge on the right side and not get wet! Lots of poison ivy at the bottom of 2nd rap Did a double rope rappel for 2nd rap but one 70m dynamic climbing rope gets you to the bottom with rope to spareGet a free arches permit before you go      https://archespermitsnpsgov/

New webbing on all anchors as described below 2nd rap has pile of rocks as anchor as well as someone slung a pocket in the area described by scottbordon, there are no bolts there for 2nd and 3rd rappels one 70m climbing rope makes it to the ground Make sure to get a free permit from arches      https://archespermitsnpsgov/
