Re: arriving at 0 dark 30

I’ve been out there ten times and I gotta say … There is ZERO chance of being tired when you get there. NULL, ZILCH. Time of day makes no difference. My first year we pulled in to camp at 4am, in a windstorm ... some naps were had. Learned my lesson — since then, I've either stayed up to watch the ...

Re: Tell me about your camp's electrical ground

Thanks! It sounds like bonding the generator to the shade structures is probably both important and sufficient, so I'll add that to the checklist and move on to other issues.

Like I should probably drag the generators out of storage and service them ...

Tell me about your camp's electrical ground

Hi folks, I'm working out what my camp's electricity situation is going to look like, and I have a question for the collected power experts here. Namely, how much attention do I need to pay to proper grounding for our campsite? I've read the one other thread about camp electrical ground and didn't c...

If you’re got a 1974-1976 Yamaha Moto-Bike BMX bike, don’t hang it upside down, the shocks will leak oil.
That sounds like the voice of experience ...

Re: CoVid-19 and The 2020 Burning Man Event

Numbers don’t lie. 25% of the US population are minors who CANNOT get the vaccine as it is not approved for them. So that right there kills his numbers. Stick to the facts Tony, no more wishcasting. The article literally says By mid- to late January, Fauci estimated, COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial...

Re: Contain Camps up in arms about being cut off?

Container camps are those that subscribe to the BRC storage service . Camps in this program get more or less guaranteed placement, because of the logistical nightmare that would ensue if they didn't have a set location for the container to be delivered to. It is a loophole that used to allow a camp ...

Re: Advice Booth art piece fundraiser

Project Manager? Wow, sounds like y'all are super organized!

I have a soft spot in my heart for advice booths ... I like to sit on the "giving advice" side and wait for people to come by. Dispense some, uh, wisdom.

Re: Sand art on BLM land?

In the US of A there are exactly two beaches where the public can drive. Pismo Beach in California and Daytona Beach in Florida. Both are packed and high-traffic. In the grand state of Washington beaches are generally legal to drive on unless signed otherwise. From WAC 352-37-030 : the use of motor...
