For people traveling through Reno, it's a great deal. If I'm not mistaken, some of the other properties charge more than $50 in daily additional fees on top of their room rate.

Here's a quick teaser video of the camp frontage, rendered in C4D. Modeling and texturing skills are solid, but the camera operation is a little clunky. https://youtu.be/SCXsqzhsdhw?si=HQ0dL3cTRKFEx66x The new bike rack sides came together nicely... https://i0.wp.com/atomic-octopus.com/wp-content/up...

I made a minor correction to the post to fix your broken link. You may want to tweak the site to replace the AI image with diagrams, sketches or renders once you're able, and something in the site layout is preventing people from seeing full size pics. Giving people a better idea of what's being pla...

In order to reduce car traffic to the Burning Man event and encourage alternative transportation, the Burner Express program will offer both Bus and Air travel to Black Rock City. The Burner Express Bus program operates buses from San Francisco and Reno, transporting thousands of participants into a...

We're a small group of arty weir...

I agree, BvB. Part of me wishes it could just stay ongoing like way-back-when, but in 2026 the reality is that the logistics of working with ticketing providers and batches of orders for fulfillment purposes probably dictates a cutoff date, so that 'complete' lists from a particular sale can get com...

I saw that headline, that's unfortunate. I've also noticed that in a lot of cities that do some version of Santa Con, a whole cottage industry of grifters have popped up. In Las Vegas, we do two (one in mid December, and then one in summer) and both are free events that do not require a ticket... bu...

According to the email sent out from Burning Man (click here to view in browser), the Burning Man 2026 Main Sale closes at 6PM PDT today. Click here to register for and participate in the Main Sale.

Worth noting, there is an interest-free payment plan available.

For those who are new to the community and not sure how to proceed, I strongly suggest that you take the initiative and try to find your own camp. We all understand that getting to Burning Man, especially in that very first year, can be really hard. When you read about Burning Man and the Ten Princi...

Back in the (many) years before the event sold out, and actually even in 2011 (it didn't actually sell out until July 11th), Second tier tickets were available for weeks or even months after the initial on-sale. Only the lowest ticket tier typically sold out on the first day, and the time it took us...

Happy Main Sale Day to all those who celebrate! The 2026 Burning Man Main Sale is now open! Click this link to fill out a registration check, and once cleared participate in the ticket sale. Here’s what you need to know about the Main Sale: Open to everyone! 💥 There's an interest-free payment plan! ...

In case you missed posts on the Burning Man Journal or social media, Burning Man has announced its 2026 art theme: Axis Mundi Burning Man 2026 in Black Rock City and beyond will celebrate the interconnectedness of our global community, the new social realities we are creating together, and our endur...

FIRST THIS: OMG People!, so many found phones in our 2025 collection, and only a handful were labeled with return information. Cell carriers who have helped us return phones to their owners in the past have withdrawn support this year. Sadly this means a bunch will eventually be donated to charity w...

I'm not familiar with the organization, but a web search looks like garden variety social media nutters who post clickbait on social media and not a tabloid or outlet per se? The listed business address appears to be a tiny office rental or mailbox behind a financial investment place and a place tha...

Unfortunately, I think Oasis 29 packed it in after their beloved matriarch passed away. Bunny's Tacos usually opens in Nixon before the event, but I am not quite sure when. If I'm not mistaken the little gas station/smokeshop in Wadsworth may also do an indian taco operation in the parking lot to th...

It's home stretch time for us. Last of the pre-playa projects was completed yesterday, and I finished my share of the pre-cooking for our personal camp food. I also got a fair amount of the shop packed up. There are some errands to run today, then it's all largely packing and loading.

This is a pretty cool widget, courtesy of the Burning Man tech team.... 2025 BRC DASHBOARD It's got the Black Rock City weather forecast! It will have the Burning Man traffic updates and gate/exodus times. This is the same info that you would get on BMIR as well as the BManTraffic account on X (form...

Update - the 2025 BRC Dashboard site is HERE and online!

Congrats on the approvals and good luck sorting out your transportation!

This seems new and worth mentioning... Burning Man has released an Open Camping Map for 2025. https://burningman.org/wp-content/uploads/Screenshot-2025-08-05-at-5.35.24%E2%80%AFPM-1536x1454.png You can find this map by going to the 2025 Black Rock City Plan page and scrolling to the bottom, below th...

Hey everybody, as we are now well into the home stretch I wanted to take a moment to take the moderator hat off and offer some personal observations on where things appear to stand, as well as some advice for sellers and seekers. That is, none of what comes next is any kind of official statement fro...

BMIR is accessible worldwide via the iHeartRadio app, I believe. They also still operate the @bmantraffic account on X (formerly twitter, boo... hiss...) . Word of caution, you may need to be either signed in, or a paid subscriber on X in order to see the most recent posts first. When viewing logged...

You didn't specify the current draw on what you're pivoting to. As long as it draws less than 9.5ish amps, it could work.

When I clicked the link, it showed a 15A draw on the AC, and Honda's site says the EU2200i (newer model) can do just over 18A. The older eu2000i comes up on 3rd party sites indicating it can do 13A. Again, those are sea level elevation optimized performance situations.

That may be tricky, as people who rent bike probably aren't people who own larger bike racks? I would recommend checking in with your local regional group on FB, or reach out directly to some of the larger camps who might have a quantity of people renting bikes from them. You may also want to cast a...

Honda makes a great whisper-quiet generator, and that's definitely one of them. I wouldn't describe it as a soft-start so much, but I've never used it to run an AC (neither my partner nor I have a medical condition that requires it, we've been fine without) . I would also point out that your equipme...
