I'm taking that since there is no new news and no pictures or video coming out in recent days means there is bad news. I don't know if the BLM wont allow real heavy equipment on the Playa outside of the burn but.... It seems to me a large but not ludicrous large crawler with a drawbar and winch, 2 T...

Definitely email Placement telling them what your plans are and ask to be put back on the placement email list. It might be appropriate to tell them who the primary leader is and who the backup leader is if the primary is not available.

... I know right where it is and want to visit it in the late spring to see how shot up it gets... I take it the 'owners' aren't familiar with rural. At least there's bound to be some that hit low and let the water drain out that gets in from the higher holes. Wonder if it already has some drain ho...

Cool!

Thanks for the update!

Time to bring in a semi load of wood crane mats, 3 excavators with thumbs and an offroad forklift.

Road trip and soak at Trego?

Anyone?

If only I lived closer!
I know right where it is and want to visit it in the late spring to see how shot up it gets. It's going to be visible from a frequently used road. Hopefully Frog Pond and Trego have a cleaner bill of health when I make the trip.

I read that story too. I was wondering if any one had witnessed activity on the Playa that indicates they are moving it?

Anybody know if they are on site moving the 747 to private property today?

Black Rock City Welding & Repair has found our Manifesto!!!!!

We moved a vehicle on the perimeter of camp Monday to be closer to the owners stuff for teardown and overnight someone moved 2 stolen tents and contents also stolen from camps in to the spot where the vehicle was. Our campers surprised the thief in the tents as they were talking about how the fuck t...

Hot water heater trick. I have a travel trailer and after initial warm up I switch the hot water heater to pilot light mode. The small flame heats the water tank sufficiently for super short water conserving showers. This wont work with a water heater that has an electric ignitor in place of a pilot...

This is how I would approach that....Email placement and inform them that you are adding a co-lead. Give them the pertinent information such as real name, burner name and email address. CC your new co-lead on the email to placement. Describe there in that you want your co-lead to have the same autho...

...... Mosey on over to the older section of My mind begins to hum or a similar thread AND STAY THERE!!! It's where you belong.

Hey Ratty, There is an unspoken rule ( or up front that I'm not 100% aware of) about publishing aggregated camp real addresses prior to gate open. At least that is my interpretation of the few instances I have been involved with. Please stop by BRCW&R after gate open and pick up a copy of the info f...

Why get those specialized chunks of metal for more than the cost of the lag screws themselves? I bought a box of run-the-mill chain from a department store for like $10 for about 30ft of chain link or something. Then bought a generic bolt cutter at the same store for about $25. That's $35 (maybe le...

I've got 2- 3/8 socket driver Dewalt impact 20volts and I've got to say they struggle a bit with the 18" lags. Last year I was switching back and forth between them because they were warming up. We drive alot of lags all at once to secure the shades. For this year I bought the larger version with 1/...

Whew! Glad I got my 18's while they lasted!

Correct me if I'm wrong Elliot but you want someone to take this list and format it in an easy to read manner possibly arranging it by address and print about 150 of them out on reasonably tough paper and distribute them to the repair camps and Playa Info. Got it! Now we need a volunteer to gift thi...

It would not surprise me if DMV is set up to handle your legitimate last minute need for a disabled vehicle pass but are not in regular communication since they are probably in transition to on playa operations. Perhaps someone who has been in a similar situation right before the burn will crop up a...

Come on by Black Rock City Welding & Repair and volunteer in our bike shop for a few hours on Wednesday or Thursday (or any day really between the hours of 10am and 4pm) and do a couple bottom brackets. They should be squeaking in about that time. We might take a look at your bike too. 3:00 and A

I no longer need to find a vehicle pass! Thank you Elliot for connecting me to one.

I found a vehicle pass for you. Lets message about how to get it to you. It's being mailed to me from CA.

Still working on it. VP is being shipped to my former camp mate and so he doesn't want to release it till he has it.

Definitely. I'm still on the hunt for 1 VP.

When I left tickets at the box office for someone they wanted their full real name and ticketfly email address.

Hey Flint, Thanks for the response. For some reason ePlaya stopped telling me when people responded to my posts so I wasn't alerted to your post. Have fun convoying out with your friend!

Another one cropped up. Working on that.

My contact isn't responding. Anybody want to help Tatonka with a Vehicle Pass?

Working on seeing if a spare in camp is still available. I'll let you know when I know. Also sent you an email through the link here on eplaya but dont know if that went through,

Gears & Beers which is more along the lines of Mutant Vehicle repair is at 4:15 and Dewey per their post in the 3:00 FB group.
