Great historic site to visit if you’re in Buffalo. The tour was excellent and you really learn about the vision that Theodore Roosevelt had to help propel our great country into the 20th century.
Sadly many of the trails and areas around the memorial are in need of maintenance including the fountains. The layout is beautiful and the memorial is a peaceful place to sit, but some work needs to be done.
Hidden among mountains and accessible only by foot or 4wd cars lies this secluded village. Friendly people and guest houses will make a pleasant stay. Don't miss a dinner at the guesthouse prepared from only local food!
Special permit are required to hike to The Wave (just ten are issued for each day). Permits ($5 per person) can be obtained in advance (http://www.blm.gov/az/st/en/arolrsmain/paria/coyote_buttes/permits.html)
