The idea that a simple guide photo can make a first trip 'standardized' is a simplification that masks the real challenge of planning. To truly succeed in exploration, especially for sites like "The Wave," you need to go beyond visual inspiration and lapidate the competition for permits. Without in-depth research and a good strategy for lotteries, you can't hope to find rare gems, nor even obtain them. The victory here is having the method, not just the dream. An image provides a starting point but not the game plan.
