Re: Holding Down Shelter - Structural Engineer Needed Please

I am not quite picturing your shelter. You said it was 80 feet long and 15 feet tall. Are the sides open, or do you have a wall that is 80x15? A structural engineer could probably tell you what the tensile force strength of a lag bolt would be, but that wouldn't really apply as the bolt would pull o...

Re: New-ish and Bringing an Art Installation

Ok, got it. Is this actually worth the expense and effort of me going this year then? I certainly didn't mean to suggest that you shouldn't go to and bring your art! There is nothing wrong with having it in your camp. If this art is something that is interactive then it might actually benefit of be...

Re: New-ish and Bringing an Art Installation

As you won't be a 'placed camp' ( which would have required you applying and getting approved months ago) you will be in 'open camping'. When you arrive, just drive around and find an open spot. Have you seen maps of the layout of the camping area? It's laid out like a clock, with the Man in center....

Re: Lost Keys near Commissary/Parking Lot

I saw that key ring when we were packing up the Fluffer station. The Fluffer lead, Mile High, might have it or know where it ended up.

Re: Tarps - treated VS untrteated; 10; 12 or 16 oz?

it can be an undesirable walking or dancing surface. Especially if there is heavy rains (which is definitely a possibility in BRC) then you end up with a playa mud slip and slide. Last year I would have taken a slip-n-slide over the mud pit. Heck, that would have been fun! I got some amusement watc...

Label your stuff!

Many, many people (myself included) manage to lose stuff on the playa. I don't mean that it gets stolen, I mean that you set it down and walk off an leave it. This includes bicycles! Yep, I have friends who forgot that they rode their bike to a bar/event and walked back to camp! To improve the chanc...

Re: I’m asking for a Hail Mary of help, can you donate my injured partner an E-bike

Ryan:

I hope that your partner enjoyed the use of the E_trike I made available to you,

The rain made the logistics of getting it back a bit difficult, but we managed!

Re: Could wearing little clothing be an issue?

Note that it can get cold at night. Running around in a bikini is fine during the day (other than sunburn issues) but you will be freezing at night!
