A permit is required to visit the Coyote Buttes South (CBS) area. This must be purchased before the visit. Every day 20 of these permits are issued. Each permit is valid for one person. 10 of these permits\/day are allocated four months in advance by online lottery. A further 10 permits are drawn daily, also online on site. If you are caught without a permit in the CBS area, you can expect hefty fines. BLM rangers check the area regularly.\u00a0<\/p>

Also because of the somewhat more complicated and difficult approach to the trailhead, it is somewhat easier to get permits here than for Coyote Buttes North. Nevertheless, one should not rely on it. Again, the more flexible you are, the better your chances of getting a permit. Also for the Coyote Buttes South the groups are limited to max. 6 persons.<\/p>

Note:<\/strong><\/span> Even if you plan to go on a guided tour with a commercial tour operator, everyone needs a permit. The permit of the tour guide is bound to a valid permit of the tour participant. This means that if you don't have a permit, you can't join a guided tour. You can't get a permit from the commercial tour operators and they can't get you a permit either.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Every month, permits for 10 people\/day are drawn online.\u00a0<\/p>

There is a calendar system for the permits. First, you have to register on the website of www.recreation.gov<\/a><\/span> The 10 permits are released on the first day of each month, four months in advance, for the entire permit month. For example, all permits for June are released on March 1. All permits for July are released on April 1, and so on. If you want a specific date, you should be ready at your computer when the dates are released. If you are flexible, you can usually still get permits a few days after they are released. The photo below shows an example of the calendar for June 2026, taken on March 2, 2026. Permits for Coyote Buttes South are not raffled off. If there are no permits available in the calendar, they have been taken for that month.<\/p>

Then you pay a $6 registration fee and $5 per permit by credit card. Once you have received your confirmation email, you just have to wait... After about 4 to 6 weeks, your permit will be sent to you by mail. Don't worry, the permit will arrive...<\/p>

But even in case you don't get the permit for some reason, you don't have to panic. Since the permits are not transferable, you can also pick up your permit personally on site, because the name is registered.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
