Hey, I remember you! 8) Welcome back! Uh oh nothing bad I hope ;-) Stagger In! . . . Stag Camp is still going strong, although I'm uncertain as to whether you will know any of the current Staggers (Did you know Greg? He's still there. But another one of the O.G.'s--Motskyroonmatick--is now running ...

Hey everyone! My first burn was 2007 at Stag Camp, and like most people it changed my life. I quit my job in data entry for a trucking company, & have spent the last 10 years doing seasonal work at various national parks and ski resorts, learning how to DJ and snowboard (this year starting to downhi...

In 2007 i took a 2 door convertible (i went by myself) with barely any trunk space either...managed to pack a 6' tall dome tent, a mini-tent for gear storage on-playa, a few costumes, all my water, food, booze, boom box, camping gear etc and still managed to squeeze into the drivers seat...first day...

What is up? I'm in Helena...there are only a few Burners in town here...I'm sure Missoula has more than Helena! But...a local artist/Burner here in Helena is planning a Burn-ish type event towards the end of Feb. out on one of the frozen lakes around here (if they are still frozen that is!) He's on ...

What happened to radical self-reliance? If you don't like paying bills...get rid of them. Its surprising how many people in America these days think having a car & a cell phone is necessary for survival...its not. I personally have a disdain for the concept of money and am working towards achieving ...

Well...my very first experience would have to be a dust storm mid day sunday 2007 waiting to pick my ticket up from will call & almost losing my car in the dust; had never been in weather like that! but a better one is rolling slowly thru the line to get in monday morning & having the guy in the car...

my group is planning on making at least one for next year...what sort of mods are you planning on making? how many people could one of those sleep comfortably?

I don't know why this made be de-lurk, but.. TAE EET BOO TAY I haven't heard about for a long time, and I am curious to learn more about the Bhutanese variant, for I was trained in Assam. How exactly do you pronounce that? cuz i've been studying the art & beauty of tight booty for a long time... si...

Maybe i just have hardcore dirty hippie feet...but i wandered around barefoot and in sandals all last year, had my feet coated in playa dust, and no playa foot, just a weird tingling sensation the first day which went away the next day. my hands, on the other hand ;-) took so much abuse from zipping...

i think sleep deprivation is a crucial part of the experience...dont fight it, embrace it! or just drink heavily till you pass out! last year i had construction-grade earplugs, the kind made of soft plastic with 2 or 3 rings or baffles or whatever you want to call them...they go all the way into you...

...or you can always just bring your bike...

lol thx it used to be my myspace name but thats now DJ QwanTim...i don't know it just seems to fit my personality...and i like the pun

E_S, Sweet!!! WE are going to have a second shade that will be the party shade. It will be on the street and there are already plans to have a PA. The DJ's will have to get together and let each other know what they can contribute. Redundancy on mixers and turntables seems like a good idea)to start...

I was thinking of playing a meditation mix middays with some tuvan throat singing, arabic, indian, and asian chanting, strings & flute, maybe a bit of a trance beat just to give you that little extra push into the outer realms...I also wanted to try an experiment with the Hemi-sync series of recordi...

STAGGERS IM COMING HOME! sadly my plans for Glacier Park (& life in general, but that's beside the point) fell through last week...so I guess I have nothing better to do this Labor Day, I might as well come down again this year and spend it with you guys! This year I am coming with a buddy or 2 in a...

Coachella has been recycling old Burning Man art for at least the past 2 years...I dont remember what the name of the installation was, but it was from BM 2006, looked like an alien of some sort and you could climb up inside it...it was set up at Coachella 2007 and was featured on their website. I d...

saliva has also been found to be lethal...but only when ingested orally in small amounts over long periods of time...

ok well...maybe not so much...so far no one has died yet...but they do in fact contain small amounts of BPA, a chemical which could potentially have harmful effects on humans...possibly maybe...and its more likely to leach into your beverage if you swig hot tea or wine from it (as i often do) since ...

07 was my first year...I was very prepared for a noob since I was doing my virgin year all on my own...i wanted it to be a very personal experience and i didnt want to have to rely on anyone in case shit hit the fan so I made sure to be as prepped as possible, and the result was: I should have broug...

PLOWMAN!!! hey neighbor!! yeah i sure do miss your breakfast...bacon never tasted so good! havent gotten my ticket yet...one of the drawbacks of bein a poor college student...and if things go as they are looking like they will, i may not be able to make it down there this year at all...I applied for...

Now let me ask the question: if you can recharge off a regular power outlet, how come you don't run your gear off that outlet? ...because the outlet will be in my room, miles and miles away...im looking for something i can load into the car, drive to a trailhead, and hike a few hundred yards into a...

Yamaha's EF1000 looks to be quite a bit cheaper and along the same lines as the honda one... that looks like one of the big problems is being able to afford the $1000+ for a generator...originally i was thinking of just getting an inverter and running it off my car battery, but that would limit me t...

Im looking for some form of power supply to run a laptop, amp & speakers, and maybe a few colored floodlights (basically a very minimalist DJ-ing setup) so i can put on dance parties in remote areas (I will be working at Glacier Natl Park this summer) It doesn't necessarily need to be tough enough t...

I like the idea and I bring extra bikes to let people use. Only one of the bikes I brought was stolen. It happened to look similar to a "green bike" but was black and I think that is why someone destroyed the lock and took it. Many people don't know about the bike program and it's guidelines. It is...

Didnt notice the poker chips till i posted it(thought the shaker was hot shit!) So I guess that means we're gonna have to playa couple hands of poker while we suck these martini's down, Hey Sput can I have mine with Stoli please, gin gives me heartburn. Extra dirty...like Red Sunflowers 3 olives......

Last year was my first year and i went by myself...it was a long 2 day drive but i think the time helped me to get in the right frame of mind and also had me really anxious to interact with other humans by the time i got there. Stag camp was very welcoming and was almost entirely comprised of others...

Coolest "gift" that stuck with me was wandering back to my dome late one night my first year and running into a lady that had a tray of hot grilled cheese sandwiches who handed me one. "ok, this is cool." nom nom nom Made my trip right there. :) Badger haha yeah they made one of my nights too last ...

i for one really enjoyed having to wander around in the dark looking for the then-barely-existant Stag Camp in the wee hours on monday morning with only a vague idea of where to look...still having hardly any idea what i had gotten myself into :) that first glimpse of the empty city streets under th...
