Photo by @seanstumblingthrough Eight months of waiting for a permit. Three miles (5 kilometers) of hiking through unmarked trails. One photo that defies expectations. That marks Sean Han?s (@seanstumblingthrough) journey to The Wave in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness near the Arizona and Utah border. But seeing this prehistoric dinosaur hangout spot in person was worth it. ?Most people would never expect to find such striking colors and patterns in the middle of the desert,? Sean says. #WHPunexpected
