SUMMARY:The Wave — Coyote Buttes North August 2026 Permit Lottery Open
DESCRIPTION:Coyote Buttes North\, located in the Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness on the Arizona-Utah border\, is home to The Wave — a sandstone rock formation known for its sweeping\, layered curves and difficult access. Permits are strictly limited to 64 visitors per day and are distributed entirely by lottery through recreation.gov\, making this one of the most competitive permit draws in the American Southwest. \nThe lottery for each months opens several months in advance: see the table below. \nYou enter the lottery here: https://www.recreation.gov/permits/274309 \nThe windows to apply for August 2026 opens and closes in April. Applications are submitted at recreation.gov and winners are selected randomly — applying early within the window offers no advantage over applying later. The online lottery costs $9 per application regardless of outcome\, and winning permits are $9 per person. Each application can include up to six people. \nThe trailhead is located near the Utah-Arizona border outside Kanab\, UT\, and requires a high-clearance vehicle to access via dirt road. There is no marked trail to The Wave itself — navigating to the formation requires a map and basic route-finding ability. The permit includes access to the full Coyote Buttes North area\, which contains several additional formations beyond The Wave worth exploring if you make the draw. \n\nImportant Dates\n\n\nDates\nInformation\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 1\, 2026 – January 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during May\n\n\nFebruary 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during May\n\n\nFebruary 1\, 2026 – February 28\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during June\n\n\nMarch 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during June\n\n\nMarch 1\, 2026 – March 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during July\n\n\nApril 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during July\n\n\nApril 1\, 2026 – April 30\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during August\n\n\nMay 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during August\n\n\nMay 1\, 2026 – May 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during September\n\n\nJune 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during September\n\n\nJune 1\, 2026 – June 30\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during October\n\n\nJuly 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during October\n\n\nJuly 1\, 2026 – July 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during November\n\n\nAugust 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during November\n\n\nAugust 1\, 2026 – August 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during December\n\n\nSeptember 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during December\n\n\nSeptember 1\, 2026 – September 30\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during January\n\n\nOctober 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during January\n\n\nOctober 1\, 2026 – October 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during February\n\n\nNovember 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during February\n\n\nNovember 1\, 2026 – November 30\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during March\n\n\nDecember 1\, 2026\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during March\n\n\nDecember 1\, 2026 – December 31\, 2026\nLottery open to applications for permits during April\n\n\nJanuary 1\, 2027\nLottery runs at 9am MT for permits during April
