I recently got the news that I was one of the fortunate to receive a permit to visit the Wave<\/a>, part of the North Coyote Butte<\/a> area in Arizona, in April. It’s a place I have long heard about, and the photos that others have shot there make it look curious, strange and pretty cool. Now I get to check it out in person in a few months. I’ll probably spend a day fooling around near Page so that I can return to the Antelope Canyon slot canyons<\/a>, a very interesting place. The slots will likely be crowded there this April, but on my previous visit there — on a very cold January day — I had the narrows to myself much of the morning. I felt like a hobbit creeping about through some bizarre location in Middle Earth.<\/p>\n
