How long is the safety briefing if you win the in person lottery? I know the lottery takes place at 9am but is the briefing immediately afterwards? We have reservations to kayak the Colorado river at noon so we’d need to leave Kanab by 10am the day I want to try for the permit. Is that doable?

Once you have a permit, can you walk to the wave on your own or do you have to go in a group. My Husband & I have a mild disability. We can walk and climb as long as its not too steep but we are slow and have to take our time. . We have to be able to walk at our own pace so we could not go with a group because we would hold them up.

Hi Everyone, My wife and I were lucky enough to win the lottery for next Monday the 26th! We've been super excited and preparing months for this trip. Unfortunately, the closer we get to our day the weather forecast has been spiraling downwards to show possible rain and snow showers ONLY for that day. Coming from California, we're not really used to this type of forecast and was hoping we can get some insight from people who have been to The Wave during inclement weather. I have a 2019 CX-5 AWD that supposedly handles pretty well off-road but we're concerned whether we should attempt to drive the House Rock Valley Rd. from the Northern entrance. I've read that the Southern entrance heading up from Arizona has better road conditions but will take longer. We're still planning to go unless we get really heavy rain/snow but I'm hoping to get some advice on weather and road conditions with Monday's forecast. TIA!

Does anyone know if the in-person lottery for the wave has become less busy since Covid?

Can anyone go to the wave? Do you need a permit?

I am also traveling in December, late December to be precised. Can you please tell me about what type of cloths we should bring? Also what was the daylight timespan for the time of the year you visited? Thanks, Subhadeep

Is it cold already in October if we go to Utah?

english version below Hallo. Ich habe mich für ein Ticket beworben. Wie viel Zeit sollte man einplanen, um den Ort und vor allem "The Wave" kennenzulernen? Wie lange kann man überhaupt dort bleiben? Da wir nur 2 Wochen Urlaub haben und noch weiter durch Utah fahren möchten, soll das nicht unser einziger Stop sein. Freue mich über Tipps und Ratschläge. DANKE. ------------------------------------- Hello. I've applied for a lottery ticket. How much time should i plan to visit this place especially "The Wave"? How long can you stay in the park generally? As we have two weeks of vacation through Utah this is not our only stop. Thanks for your recommendations.

Où puis-je trouver une liste de guides pour visiter The Wave! Guide qui parle français, sinon guide anglophone...un gros merci

I’m headed to Kanab tonight and the Wave tomorrow. Right now Kanab and Big Water both call for rain early tomorrow morning and then in the late afternoon. We planned on hiking early and we did rent a truck. Will the BLM cancel hiking for rain? What’s the best way to find out conditions and safety due to weather? Thank you!
