On my last trip out to the Southwest my party and I made a couple attempts to get permits into the iconic Wave in Coyote Buttes North. We struck out both times but I'm happy to say I still found some waves out in White Pocket in the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument area. Awesome awesome place and one of the most truly awe inspiring light shows that I have ever seen this night.
The superstition mountains at lost Dutchman state Park in Apache Junction Arizona. Watch out for those cholla cactus quills. Those tiny barbed needless will stick in you and never let go.
