Yes, this information applies to many natural areas, not just in this park! I decided to walk across my backyard earlier today, to reach my shed and grab the weed wacker. But first, I watched this guide. It was then I decided to return the weedwacker and not do the trimming. After all, I wouldn't want to not leave the natural landscape the way it was when I got there! 😂
I have been fortunate enough to go once. I tried the lotto online 3-5 times and in person 2 or 3 times before I lucked out and got on online. It is an amazing place!
12:43 - Clean up after dogs, yes, and for the sake of your dog's safety, the safety of local wildlife, and the experience of other hikers, keep your dog on a leash! 13:01 - "When appropriate" should mean the whole time someone's hiking in a place like this with a dog.
HEAT. If not from the west you really don't understand the rapidity of heat exhaustion. You have to eat crackers or something with water. Fritos. My personal favorite salt pill. IVs work good but most hikers are not combat medics with a stolen CM bag.
Planning a trip here seems challenging with lotteries and a minimum of a few days' stay at Kanab. Also, there seem to be different attractions with varying degrees of challenges. Not sure which to start with.
It depends on what you want to do. Many reservations can be made online. I've been able to secure 4 permits to the wilderness (not the wave) without ever going to Kanab.
HAHAHA, meanwhile the rest of us just walk in. Ask an illegal if they give a shit about a permit. And ask the BLM if they'll an illegal any shit about not having a permit. You're a sucker.
THAT"S AMUSING at 10 min 57 seconds on this video you talk about safety hiking alone and show a "Guy / Bonehead " hiking with Flip Flops Sandals On His Feet !! LOL
"This wilderness is here for you to enjoy" Nothing is further from the truth. Wilderness designations are specifically designed to keep the public OUT. You own it, you pay to maintain it, study it, and protect it. However, by law, there will be no roads built and even hiking requires you to get permission to see it, and pay for that. These designations, promoted by interest groups like the Sierra Club, are ways for those groups to take control, for themselves, of public lands. But YOU get the bill. And you're not welcome there. END the proliferation of Wilderness Area designations. They're land grabs by small groups and unfair to the public who also own these lands.
Of course not. This idiot wants these incredible, fragile lands opened up to all kinds of dirt bike and ATV travel, which would of course ruin the lands.
They are NOT designed to keep "the public" out, but rather they are designed to keep the area in a primitive state. People are welcome to visit as long as they do not alter that primitive state. Only human arrogance would lead one to believe that we should be able to do whatever we please with these fragile, magnificent areas.
Without forward-thinking outdoors people decades ago, we wouldn't be able to enjoy pristine, road-free areas today. Places like this would be in private hands and illegal for Americans to enjoy. Look at many beautiful places in Europe and you find development right up to the lake edge (Cuomo, Garda, etc.) and so much land in private hands. Must we doze, grade and pave EVERY last beautiful place on earth? Yes, this country is big, but the unique, valuable areas like this are limited. Once a Yosemite Valley is developed, it's gone for good. We've done enough development of this country - let's save some of it for future generations, not as exclusive playgrounds for the elite.
Illegal and unlawful pretty much mean the same thing. A Google search does say unlawful can mean not permitted by Law while illegal means forbidden by Law. However, the U.S. Constitution says you can't be prosecuted for something not against the Law, so the distinction is pretty much irrelevant. Either it's against the Law, or else it's legal. This video also said illegal.
@@cacatr4495 This area is not on tribal land as far as I can see. The Navajo Nation is all east of The Colorado River. Canyon De Chelly is a National Monument on Tribal Land.
Going back into the canyon for the 4th time in 2 weeks time. This place is enchanting.
Me, been there 10 times 😉
A bit preachy yet very necessary. And delivered in a gentle tone with respect for both nature and for humans. Bravo, BLM. PS beautiful photography.
I have been fortunate to have hiked to the wave two times. It is gorgeous!
AZ and UT landscape is a must for any hiker, mountain biker....any kind of traveller! Just love all there is to see and do there!
we were just out there, and the road is in amazing shape. We drove out in a honda Mini Van
We won the lottery for Coyote Buttes South !! Whoop whoop!! 🎉🙌❤😃
Nice music. Thanks for the easy hike.😀
Superb information useful not only for this particular wilderness but for many locations in the southwest. Thank you!

Love this place, it’s my home basically
So would you recommend hiring a hiking guide?
Very informative !
Das ist eine wundervolle Landschaft, einfach beeindruckend!
Nice job to all involved. Very informative on how to access and enjoy the area.
Thank you for this documentary. It must be an awesome trip and hikes to see this wonder.
Love this place, we were in Coyote buttes south and buckskin gulch just Nov 2020, enjoyed so much, too bad we didn’t win the wave’s lottery🙄🙄
Fantastic, Dave! Thank you for this vicarious adventure.

very nice...
Excellent video!
Please add closed captions to this video.
Are there guides available? I would love to do this but not solo, it would be great to go with a group.

We really hope that we will be able to visit this wonderful place :)

This video makes it scary to go
The truth it’s scary sometimes
@@KayentaRojo Just got my lottery win announcement and I'm kind of terrified.
That’s the point, don’t underestimate potential dangers and be real sure you’re prepared
@@davidsrosserbe safe! Bring a sat phone. I use the garmin in reach mini when I’m out there
Wow
Should be a National Park
Nice. But next time use Thunderstruck for music intro.
I always study my "roots" when I hike.
What are those aquatic creatures at 13:52 in the video? Creepy, but cool!
Look like tadpoles to me!
@@Chef_602 Close....tadpole shrimp is one name for them.
@@n0dedotorg thanks for the info!
Is this video in the Public Domain since it is a US Government video?
what is a special management area?
I've been trying the lottery five months a year, for years now, no luck...But I won't give up!
HAHAHA, meanwhile the rest of us just walk in. Ask an illegal if they give a shit about a permit. And ask the BLM if they'll an illegal any shit about not having a permit. You're a sucker.
Shows a hiker putting shoes on her dog because the terrain is like "sandpaper". Then shows the dog hiking sans shoes.
Why would anyone downvote this?
13:53 What are those things? They look like Alien face grabbers!
oh this is about hiking =/
was more interested in a documentary explaining the geology.
6:50 Venomous animals, not poisonous.
12:23 worst nightmare
Is it possible to make it down the road on my Harley Davidson or is it too soft?
Be alert for wild mormons! This is dangerous terrain.
Indonesia 🇲🇨👍
THAT"S AMUSING at 10 min 57 seconds on this video you talk about safety hiking alone and show a "Guy / Bonehead " hiking with Flip Flops Sandals On His Feet !! LOL
Lol after watching this video, yeah don't feel like going anymore.
Thanks BLM.
I know, sounds like a death trap
SAME LOL
it say MOJON XD
I don't to stand in line with those rug rats. What is this disney world? National forests rule.
"If bitten by POISONOUS"... Thank you BLM for not knowing the difference between venomous and poisonous. Cheers.
I was bitten by a corrosive snake!

Wow...got the same in mind as i hear this sentence...tanks for this :)
you have to follow rules to enjoy you must not like rules I have been out west several times and never had a problem finding a place to hike
Of course not. This idiot wants these incredible, fragile lands opened up to all kinds of dirt bike and ATV travel, which would of course ruin the lands.

12:16 Correction: it may be illegal but is not unlawful. This video conflates the two terms but that is to be expected as this a BLM video.

This should be a National Park not a Wilderness Area. This is almost criminal.
Is there any National Park on tribal land?
