Utah/Arizona: in Search of the Wave
Utah/Arizona: in Search of the Wave
Deep in the heart of the Colorado plateau the Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness Area begins. An inaccessible and breathtakingly beautiful area. This is where we start our search for The Wave: the best-kept trekking secret of the USA. Read excerpts of this feature.

’Hiker in The Wave-2.’
The hiker who enters "The Wave" in the Coyote Buttes nature reserve (part of the Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness) may think he is stepping into a sticky red fluid with white stripes, something like sour cream stirred into pumpkin soup. But this geological wonder actually consists of 200 million years old fossilized sand dunes. Photo Paul Smit.
