Once we had permits in hand our plan was for April and I to take our 2month old baby down to Kanab and Page for a weekend of hiking, photos, and hotels. The weather in the area had been fantastic for the days leading up to our trip but there was a huge plunge in the temperature on the days allotted to us by our permits. It was going to be far too cold take the baby out hiking so April stayed home while Whitney and I made the drive down to Kanab and pulled into our hotel just as the snow started to fall. I never sleep well in hotels so I tossed and turned for most of the night dreaming about shooting some photos of the wave.
