You can apply for and purchase recreation permits on-line to visit three Bureau of Land Management special areas in Arizona — Aravaipa Canyon, Paria Canyon, and Coyote Buttes Wilderness Areas. The number of allowable visitors to these areas is limited to protect the landscape and the wildlife, and to ensure a quality experience for everyone. The permit fees you pay are directly deposited to the areas to maintain and improve the services and the resources. Fees may vary, so be sure to read the information for each area.
