Wildlife sightings on The Wave:
We went Classic out-and-back from Wire Pass before heat builds starting at 4:45 AM. Clear sky made timing simple and kept visibility high. Route markers lined up well, still worth checking maps often.
Wildlife/nature notes: No wildlife issues, mostly open desert w/ good visibility.
Plan accordingly.
Tips
- Keep snacks accessible.
- Tape hot spots before they blister.
- Carry a small trash bag.
