Just sickening.

We spent about $2,000 for a family of 4 to go last year, BUT we already owned pretty much all the camping gear (we're regular campers). The $2,000 was for: Tickets Paying for rental space on a truck to bring some of our bigger stuff/teepee poles/bikes to the Playa. Food Drinks Gas Restaurants and sn...

Plan for the whole time, but have a back-up plan in case things fall apart. Allow yourself some downtime during the week - time to just chill out at camp and relax. This is the hardest part by far, since there's so much to see and do you'll want to force yourself to keep on going and going. We made ...

Baby wipes every day, then every 2 or 3 days I do a sponge bath using maybe 1 liter of water. I wash my hair with no rinse shampoo when I do the sponge baths.

And for what it is worth, Kidsville is certainly NOT a no-nudity zone! People might be just a little more modest than in other parts of the city, but there is plenty of nudity to go around.

Not to mention the fact that you need to have kids with you to even camp there in the first place.

Two things quickly:

1. You don't have to join a camp (in fact, it may be preferable not to join one).

2. Not all camps charge fees. It totally depends on how they're set up.

Thanks for being out there and doing the dirty work. But honestly, not all of us (I'd hazard to say most of us) are great at not leaving a mess. Just becuase there are some idiots doesn't mean everyone there was an idiot. We packed out more crap than we brought with us, thank you very much. Includin...

I haven't read the whole thread, but I was able to text while waiting in the 20 MILE long line outside of Gerlach on Sunday night/early Monday morning. That doesn't mean there was cell service at BRC.

And really, I'm glad I could. It whiled away a very long, very boring, inching along night.

Other than the official decompressions, what do you do to decompress? Anything you do every year?

Oh you could "yarn bomb" some street signs! That'd be cool!

There might be a group of us knitter types, who might already be talking about Yarn Bombing BRC.

or maybe not......

Another one that you probably had to be there for. We camped in Kidsville with our 3yr old and 5yr old. One morning my husband stumbles out of our teepee half dressed and half awake. Me: Good Morning darling, your children are about to go paragliding. His face registers an awesome look of shock, dis...

We'd been planning to go for about the last 10 yrs, and finally got out there this year. We had talked about how we'd go this year, and then again in a few years when the kids were old enough to go to Grandma (they came with us this time), and then maybe again a few years after that. Last night we r...

I have an idea for a piece of art that I will complete at BM next year (there's an element that needs input from others). But, I don't think I want to bring it home with me. Maybe I'll donate it to the home for Wayward art and let it go home with someone else. Right now I believe it will be on canva...

Walking without lights is actually pretty safe, as long as everyone keep their eyes open and stop rushing. If you're riding a car and a bike and don't trust your eyes, have some lights, but please don't rely on them and end up going faster/blinder than you should. I spent most evenings on a large M...

Played at Center Camp on Monday night,. Guy with an accordian, another guy with a Double Bass, girl with a clarinet, girl with a fiddle. AWESOME Hillbilly rock kind of stuff. Lots of fun, and great entertainment. Who are they? Heard someone say something about "That Damn Bucket Band", but not totall...

We got there in the very early hours of Monday morning, and left again in the very early hours of Monday morning. Never saw the sign.

Oooh, forgot to include those little single serve Crystal Light drink powder things. I'm not normally a big fan of water, but these made water taste great! I had a variety of flavors so I didn't get bored. And one pack was the perfect size for one of the water bottles I used. Mixed with cold water t...

Yeah, we were at 5:30 and D and the Michael Jackson was a bit annoying. I didn't mind the Art Cars pumping music while driving past too much, but I did get a bit irritated when they stopped and parked and played for an hour or so. If I wanted to camp right next to a sound camp I would have done so.

I had this problem too. Drove me crazy! And this was even with me making sure I tucked the excess fabric under my butt before riding too. Ripped one of my favorite wrap pants, and did some damage to a tutu :( I'll need to see if I can figure out some kind of deflector thing. I didn't have a problem ...

What worked well for us: Our teepee ROCKED! Cool during the day, warm at night, decent airflow. Yes it got dusty, but as long as you keep things covered it's mostly fine. Next year we're not going to even bother putting up a tent! Fake Uggs from EBay rocked my world. Found them a little too warm for...

Well, I think I must have done something right! I was asked a number of times how many times I had been to BM. None of the people believed me when I told them it was my first time. But then again, I have been reading, learning, researching, planning, and preparing for about 10 yrs. All those yrs I c...

And all camps are not the same (doh!). Some camps will provide your food, kitchen, showers whatever. Others are more a conglomeration of individual camps brought together by a common theme. Some examples I know of are Kidsville, Orphanage Camp, International Camp (I believe). We camped in Kidsville ...

All the fucktards around 4:00 and D who REALLY had a problem with out little prank to change all the Detroit signs to Denver, which is where we are from.

Being from the Denver area ourselves, we LOVED the change. It was awesome - thanks for the smiles!

Sigh. Here we go again. I'm one of those "irrational" people who just got home, along with my 3 yr old and 5 yr old. The biggest issue we had was a little bit of wind chapped cheeks. They drank plenty of water, ate well, were sunscreened/sunhatted all the time, never left unattended, got very adept ...

Ugh, Sailman! I'm sorry Kidsville was such a mess. I tried to pick up as much MOOP around camp as I could before we left, and triple checked our camp area too. I also regulary patrolled the trampolines/ball pit and picked up anything that wasn't a waterbottle, item of clothing, or a shoe (assumed th...

We left at 5am on Mon morning, and it would have been great if the pulse was in operation then. ...Well, it was all fine until i was 2 minutes away from leaving BRC and the FUCKING LOST CHILD WAS REPORTED. ARGH... It wasn't a bad wait, but still, it immediately added 30 min to exodus (3.5 for me). p...

Big Eggs Benedict breakfast at the WigWam restuarant in Fernley. Yum!

I wonder if part of the issue is that the well-prepared virgins don't stand out. They kind of just fade into the background / people assume they're NOT virgins because they aren't dumb.

Hey! Not all of us virgins are so clueless! Some of have been preparing for years!

Is it iTouch compatible?

(I have an Android phone)
