Hiking to the Wave in the rain - House Rock Road is treacherous!

[@just_joc]

Wow Jerry, I've seen lots of Wave videos but never one in the rain. The moody skies, the reflections in the pools and the dramatic colors of the rocks are incredible. Thanks for sharing!

[@daleross9001]

Better know it. 💦🌅

[@davidfantle6721]

Very nice video! Brought back some potent memories for me. I've been there 3 times, beginning around 20 years ago. Back then, (pre-KZbin, Instagram, smartphones, GPS, etc) it was virtually unknown. As it was designated wilderness, cairns were not allowed (I was given instructions to destroy and scatter any that I found), and rangers were prevented from mentioning it or providing maps, just vague verbal directions if you brought it up to them. It was rare to see anyone else out there, and only about half of people who hiked in trying to find it actually did. One of my trips was in conditions similar to what you just had, and I also took shelter from the rain in that very spot. On my 2nd time out, I (along with 2 other hikers I met at The Wave) got to participate in a long rescue of a family of an elderly but fit father and 2 dehydrated and exhausted twenty-somethings who had barely the strength to get there, and then went the wrong direction on their way back. I'm really glad that you had the mud/rain to add a some adventure, as well as the wonderful color saturation boost that the water provides to the sandstone. Always enjoy following your travels and commentary! Hope to bump into you sometime out there :)

[@ohhshitimhere5162]

Like you said this is the "Holy Grail' of hiking in the Southwestern United States. I hope someday I get to do this hike myself. Congrats to you and your friends. I'm sure video and photos don't show it justice to just how magnificent this play truly is.

[@Cnsalmoni]

The music you chose adds so much to the incredible effect the scenery has on me. After years of not playing piano, I will go back,now that I have an awe inspiring incentive to revisit these pieces once more.

[@rafaelrieck6655]

I´ve been there three times in the seventies. Now with my 80 years I´m back to see to see that land of wonder (but this time on my sofa). Thanks a lot, Jerry! Greetings from old Germany and happy eastern!

[@JSees]

The colors are even more amazing with the rain. Nice musical accompaniment, Jerry, very evocative of the stunning beauty yiu captured here. No way would I have attempted that muddy road in there. And in the future the dried ruts will also be treacherous.

[@JerryArizona]

That road was absolutely terrifying.

Amazing!!! Love the music in the background! One of my favorite classical songs!

"We were definitely not going to leave you!" always enjoy your little bit of comedy! Tina would've loved that drive out and seeing you suffer everytime she looks to the right :D

That is EXACTLY what Tina would have done. She was making fun of me watching the video even.....

What an amazing hike even with the rain. The Wave is astonishing beautiful beyond words to even discribe it. I think the rock looks better a little wet from the rain. Thank you for the video😊

[@banjiegirl2001]

Wow! Just WOW! its beautiful beyond beautiful!❤

[@CampandTramp]

I enjoyed this and all your videos! Thanks. I won a March 30-2023 Advanced Permit and didn’t think I could go because of the road. Luckily I found you could book a tour and leave the driving to them! I’m glad I did. We were the first to arrive. It was windy and snowy with some clearing. Epic memories and video!

[@walkitoffarizona887]

Awaesome !! The Rain was a blessing! The color just pops when it’s wet ! The wind is howling in Rimrock tonight!

[@Zoomdak]

Freaking awesome! I went to The Wave in 2007 and it was just straight yellow like you were talking about. Amazing to endure the rain storm and see such amazing color!

[@Ashley_Schaeffer]

I was here in the dead of summer a couple years back... Although a hassle I really appreciate the lottery system for this region. Its keeps the area from overcrowding and peaceful... I hope I get a chance to do this again!

[@bettybryson9637]

Thank you for showing all that gorgeous area around the Wave! It’s the only way I’ll ever get to see it!

[@TattooedGranny]

Nice! Took me 2 years to get my permit. Hiked it on Dec 1st, 2021. A sunny day. Big horn, neon buttes, hidden giant reflecting pool, secret second boneyard…lace rock, wild verbena…The Wave. Spectacular. Munched guac and chips sitting looking down at it. Will never forget this magical place.

[@jrlong3490]

Beautiful and awesome. Rain brings out the colors and the reflecting pools of water, and much smaller crowds. That looks like the same road to get to White Pocket that I visited a couple of years ago? Thanks for sharing.

[@JerryArizona]

It is the same road. We were supposed to go to WP the day before, but the road kept getting worse the further in we went, so we decided against it.

[@saichen2689]

Love watching your video! Hiked the wave myself earlier this year. We had to hire a guide to drive us to the trail and lead us on the hike. We luckily/unluckily encountered a huge snowstorm during the hike, so got to see the wave partially covered with snow, then fully covered 15 mins later. Definitely going back to check out the second wave and melody in the future when I get a chance. Your videos have been a true inspiration. Great quality with good humors.

[@JerryArizona]

I would LOVE to see the wave in the snow! Consider yourself lucky. Not many people get to see it that way.

[@jwebbw]

It looks as if it's an optical illusion, just amazing, and the Chopin doesn't hurt either !! Thanks for the capture, take care and travel on !!

Unbelievably beautiful 🎉thanks . Keep getting a lottery spot !

[@jamieh3157]

We had permits for February 28th and the road was crazy! Luckily, on the way in it was still frozen from the temperatures, but the way out was muck and mud. This was right after several days of snow storms to the area, melt off, rain, and then more snow. When we hiked there wasn’t any precipitation, but it was extremely windy. It took us 30 minutes to make that last stretch down the sand dune and up into the wave because every 30 seconds or so we could watch a gust of wind building and carrying sand with it coming our direction with speeds of at least 20 mph. That sand hurt, so we’d stop dead in our tracks, turn around and hunker down to wait out the wind. Then get up, try to run for 10 or so steps just to do it again. Seriously, I actually got blown down the wave while attempting to take a picture it was that crazy. It also means that my company (who are not hikers) chickened out for wanting to explore any of the other features so we headed back right afterward. Still bummed about what I missed out on, but that just means I need to work on finding my way back out there… and this time with my hiking buddies instead of family ;)

[@JerryArizona]

Sounds like quite the adventure. The wave is worth it though!

[@caroljohnsonvaughn6793]

Lovely. Thanks!

[@bernardcrane750]

Thanks for sharing your journeys. Always beautiful scenery. Now for more Mexican!

[@markweaver1012]

We drove House Rock road on a day like that last March (in our Subaru Outback) -- we did have AT tires on it aired down a bit so I guess that helped, but after some initial trepidation, it was a hoot. We even ubered some people to the Wire Pass trailhead. And when we were done the car was an ungodly mess. We actually drove all the way south to the other end (the south end wasn't quite so bad) and came back through Kanab so we could hit a restaurant...and the car wash. In comparison to the mud pits in House Rock road, the road out to White Pocket (our destination that day) was a piece of cake. I was glad to see your video of House Rock since that's just about what it looked like when we were there, but we didn't get any video. As for the wave -- we haven't even tried. We don't live out there and the chances of a permit are low enough that it seems not worth the trouble of entering the lottery.

[@curleyscrewzin5622]

This is something we would love to do. Maybe one day. The scenery is beautiful!

[@michaelbisnett4845]

Nov 9th 2022. When we left Kanab it was a full blown snow storm. When we arrived to the start of the access road it was a mix of rain and snow plus 40 mph winds. The 8.5 mile drive was like driving on a skating ring, a few times we nearly slipped into the trenches next to the rode. The weather when when started the hike was still a mix of rain and snow, below freezing temps and still the 40 mph winds. However, when we arrived at the Wave, the weather made a remarkable change and the clouds started breaking up and we had partial blue skies for the 3 hours we were there. With the very poor weather we counted less than 10 people going to and being at the Wave when we were there. That night back at Kanab, the park rangers said that access for that day had not been advised. Not only were the pictures taken a treasure, the adventure added to the story.

[@Wendy-cf5tv]

Enjoyed your experience. The hues and colors are so beautiful. I’ve drawn three permits in four years and hiked it a fourth time last October with my sister! Each time it is amazing! It’s pretty cool seeing it through another’s eyes for the first time! Never a dull moment with you and Clint!

[@JerryArizona]

Wow. You need to play the actual lottery. Your luck is amazing.

[@DonHarperZedgePhoto]

This is our home turf and you’re right the colors are amazing when rocks are wet both in Coyote Buttes and at “Pahreah” town site. We drive HRVR 3-5 times each week and this winter season has been a real challenge. Local towing company could setup a substation on HRVR for the number of recoveries they’ve done there. Enjoyed your video.

WE DID IT. Got a permit for tomorrow at North Butte. Thanks for all your great videos. Tell Tina thanks as well.

[@JerryArizona]

Awesome! Enjoy. It's an incredible area. If you have time, check out Wire Pass -> Buckskin (same trailhead as the wave) and White Pocket. (High clearance 4WD required). But even if you can't, the wave is worth it all by itself.

Your videography keeps getting better, and yes it was all Klint's fault. Amazing the different color when wet.

[@vernvartdal6479]

Same is true for frozen in the morning and melted in afternoon. I did it in a Honda CRV. South to 89a is better. White pockets would have been ok as it’s sand, not industrial lubricant…

If I could have made it (or had the guts to continue on HRR), I was hoping the sand to WP was actually better with the moisture. Didn't make it though; HRR just kept getting worse.

But what we weren't prepared for was the negative wind chill. We too went out early to beat the crowd, which didn't happen because people stay out there over night and we hit the wave right at sunrise. We didn't stay more than an hour because of the brutal negative winds. It was easily -20 and quite miserable LOL but we endured what we could and then headed out... stating one day we will be back. You were brave tho driving that road in the rain!

True. I asked at the ranger station years back (96) and practically had to beat it out of them. No maps, and this was before the lottery.

What time of year did you go? And did you air down? Going March 31 with my 4Runner. I’ve got all terrains, but trying to visualize what I might be dealing with. Thanks and great video!

[@JerryArizona]

This was March or April, I think. I didn't air down and never have although I've been on this road many times. This was the worst I've ever seen it. If it's not wet, you'll be fine. If it's wet....well, it depends on how adventurous you are. In these conditions, you couldn't get out of the ruts and it was really slick (due to the clay content, I think). I was genuinely terrified, but my Tacoma SR5 never struggled. If it's dry, you'll be fine. If it's really wet....it'll depend on your tires and tolerance for this type of driving. If you're worried when it comes up to the day, maybe look into a guide service. We saw plenty of them coming in when we were there and they didn't seem to mind the roads at all.

The colors were amazing! Consider yourself lucky that you had the opportunity to capture those great shots. Next time you should try to do it in a snow storm.

The BLM in Hanksville told us we couldn’t drive in and had to go acids private land. Had to hike in from UT-24. Just curious and you can email if you don’t want to post here.

There were absolutely no signs saying you couldn't drive to it. I've since heard you aren't supposed to cross the wash. There were plenty of signs saying where you couldn't go, so we took that to mean if there weren't signs, it was OK. No private property signs where we were. But plenty of tire tracks and footprints. Not that it's OK just because other people are doing it. Hopefully it wasn't breaking any rules, but I don't know how you'd know otherwise.
