In this video, we embark on a fascinating journey to the iconic Wave, a geological wonder nestled in the sprawling desert landscapes of Northern Arizona. Famed for its captivating sandstone formations and striking color swirls, this hike is not just a trek but a pilgrimage for nature lovers and photographers from around the globe. Securing a permit may be a challenge, akin to winning a lottery, but the reward at the journey's end is a surreal, dream-like vista that defies imagination. I hope you enjoy this special hike. It was a bucket list spot for me, and I have wanted to do it for almost a decade. Let me know what you think in the comments!

  • If anyone deserved to hike the wave, it’s you. You earned the experience for sure.
  • Limiting the people protects the formations but also makes for a better experience because you aren’t battling other people for photos and can enjoy the area in peace
  • Only thing better than this video is seeing that you finally got to do it. Congratulations man! This is bucket list for us too
  • Glad you got to see it. I did the Wave last December. I got lucky and got a permit on my first try. Followed up with Angels Landing the next day. Two bucket list hikes I will never forget.

  • What an epic adventure. I’m so glad you finally got to go! Thanks for sharing it with us.
  • Very glad you got to see this Josh! I was lucky enough to get a permit on my first attempt, and wasn't even planning to apply. Made friends with some strangers at Zion and we won the lottery the next day. Truly an other worldy experience that's more that just the Wave itself. Thanks for bringing back great memories!
  • You deserved it. Thank you for letting us experience it with you. Really appreciate it

  • I've seen countless numbers of videos and photos of the Wave and it never gets old. I think I should try for a permit for next spring and try my luck before I get too old.
