Fauna notes from The Wave.
We went Main Wave route w/ extra time for return navigation starting at 6:50 AM. Clear sky made timing simple and kept visibility high sand sections were soft but easy to follow w/ track lines.
Wildlife/nature notes: Only saw small reptiles near warm rock faces.
Quick scores: overall=4, difficulty=5, views=4
Still thinking ~ this one.
