Waves in the Desert

The Wave is the popular name of a series of rock formations in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness, a nature preserve on the Arizona-Utah border. If there is any hope of surfing on dry land, this is the place to try it.

Point of order- the park is on the Colorado Plateau, which straddles the Arizona/Utah border, not in the state of Colorado.

You can surf on sand dunes, like in Great Sand Dunes National Park, Colorado.
