Mar 04, 2017 — The Wave and Melody Arch, as well as countless other interesting spots, are located in Coyote Buttes North. This BLM area requires a permit to access, and the lottery system can be brutal. We were lucky to score permits and happily started out into the desert. The Wave was our final destination, making sure to save it for last, and explore the various spots of interest along the way. Refer to the attached map for our little excursions. There are more things than are listed on there, but it should help get you started. I'd say the route up to Melody Arch and Top Rocks was a highlight, especially because the view down toward The Wave from above was outstanding.
