What you need to know
It is hard to believe, but some of those who win the lottery, never make it to The Wave.
The road to the Wire Pass Trailhead (Wave), House Rock Valley Road, can go from passable to impassable very quickly. Rocky, often deeply rutted, and totally impassable when wet, this road presents a unique set of challenges. High clearance 4x4 vehicles are highly recommended during wet periods. When dry, small cars should take great care in avoiding sharp rocks that can puncture a tire.
The rocky, sandy, uneven and fully exposed hiking trail also presents a challenge to many. The route is raw and unimproved. No shade in the summer! Please be prepared to hike approximately 7-8+ total miles exposed to all manner of elements - extreme heat in the summer and cold/icy in the winter.
