haha, that is absolutely hilarious. I am sure that would work. I was also considering the walk in camping.

Tuffcookie, I am very happy to hear you will be making the trip as well. I was going with the same idea as you about a theme camp. But after posting in Theme Camps 2010 I received some great advice and info. Check out my post under Theme Camps 2010, under looking to possibly join a theme camp. And t...

Cool, that is good to hear. How do you know what land is up for grabs and what is reserved? Are camp areas marked off? Will it be on the map in the welcome guide? Bike, check got one in mind I am going to use. Ticket, in a couple of days! Ride there, still working on this one I don't know what to do...

Thanks for the advice. I welcome any and all helpful recommendations. I am glad you stressed the particle mask, as I was thinking about just bring a bunch of bandannas. And I will consider some extra sunglasses, I thought that they might get a little beat up and or lost. So the other question that I...

Thanks for the words of advice. I tend to have pretty thick skin when it comes to sarcasm, and humor at my expense. If you can't laugh at your self or with others you are in for a boring time. Well I am really looking forward to meeting everyone this year. I have read about the camp message system, ...

ah ha, I see. I kind of figured that was what he was inferring. All in good fun I am sure. But I can see the humor in it now with a little more background info. I am not one to be homophobic. However, I do believe in respecting someones wishes. If someone hits on you guy or girl and you wish to be l...

Thanks for the info Cryptofishist. Thisisthatwhichis, I am taking it that the comfort and joy camp is one that you do not want to be at? Or is it a gay camp? Which is why he made the stroll over there comment?

Awesome Link! Thank you very much, This will be rather helpful, now I just need to get a couple of mechanically inclined friends to help me build and assemble one of these.

Is that where you are Ibdave? And what is the comfort and joy camp?

I was thinking of an igloo design. but low profile maybe a modified igloo, and then depending on how much space I have for transport, and how much materials are. I might have another one for hanging out.

Hahaha, very good point! Maybe I will just have to just play it by ear and see where it goes. If I end with no pants for some reason well then so be it. Of course that could be a good thing and a bad thing. Depending on the way you look at it. lol

Yeah I am a birgin that is for sure. I am very excited to check out the different spots and all the art. It seems like there is a lot of music out there, is it all over the playa or only in certain areas or camps. I have seen/heard about Pink Mammoth, Deep End and a couple of others. And do most cam...

lmfao, That is awesome! I might have to take a stroll one evening.

Wow... lol, sounds like that would be quite the experience if I did all of the above. Do people really run around naked? I can't imagine how that would be fun with the high winds, and sand. I think it would be like having your balls sand blasted.

Thanks for all the great advice and information. I have always been one to be able to adapt to my surrounds and environment. I have a bit of a talent for creating something useful out of something that was once considered useless. But my main reason for inquiring about this is that as of now. I will...

I think I am going to do some more work on the tent situation. I found the post with how to make the dome enclosure. I might try that with the parachute cover. Has anyone tired one before or can tell me how difficult or easy they are to construct out there? And I have also came to the conclusion tha...

Yeah I think I am going to go the candy cane rebar route I found the "how to" section on the site and will be making myself some and a few extras just in case. What do you usually set up for your camp? Tent,R.V., different enclosure?

Thanks for the words of wisdom. I am from Huntington Beach, I usually go up to Reno/Tahoe for a couple of weeks during the winter cause it is amazing up there. I have been reading the survival guide and some of the tips and tricks posts. But I am really worried about the wind. I am going to invest i...

See that is the issue that I have. I have friends but they do not want to go and experience Burning Man. Or they can not afford it or one of the million other excuses. But I am really looking forward to this experience. And am now working on meeting other burners who share the same interest. I found...

Thank you, I am very happy to become a part of this amazing experience and am looking forward to meeting many new people.

Thank you for the info and feedback. That is a good point. I also really wasn't sure how the whole thing worked as I have never been before. Just from reading and checking things out it seems like a lot of people are set up in theme camps and have their own group of people. It is good to know that I...

I feel that getting together with a group of people (camp) and sharing the experience of building a camp, hanging out, contributing, and sharing stories and experiences would be a great way to experience burning man. Plus you have others there that have experienced burning man, that can help you get...

I wanted to know if there is any space open in someone theme camp? This will be my first time at Burning Man, and I think that a theme camp would be the best way to really get the full experience.

Hello all, I am very excited about Burning Man this year! I have been wanting to go for quite a few years now. I am now just working out the logistics. I have read the survival guide and spoke with a few other burners but any other advice is always helpful. I am currently working on trying to get a ...
