Paria River District: The Wave

BLM to restore in-person day hiking permits for Coyote Buttes North on June 15 The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced on June 7 that the in-person lottery for day-use hiking permits at Coyote Buttes North, commonly known as The Wave, will resume on Monday, June 15. The BLM temporarily suspended the in-person lottery in March due to concerns about the spread of COVID-19, but continued to provide three-month advance permits through Recreation.gov. On June 6, Department of the Interior Deputy Secretary Kate MacGregor and Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management Casey Hammond visited The Wave to help promote recreation access.
