Re: Mud, Mud and More Muds - share stories!
We spent 24 or so hours in gate line. we were only about 200 yds from gate when the Thunder and lightning started and I knew what was coming next. I pulled out a roll of large contractor trash bags and some gorilla tape and started offering it to cars with exposed luggage on the roof of their cars. ...

Re: Propping Up Large Aluminet Span
Sourpatch, Weve been using a 20x30 piece of Aluminet for 4 years now. The same piece, the stuff holds up great. A couple things, It will definitely sag in the middle so the above posters suggestion is a good one to put an X of rope corner to corner. 2nd, don't presume that because it doesn't trap ai...

Re: RV incentive.
Not all people who bring RV's or trailers (in my case a 27' toy hauler) set their camp up in a way that is uninviting. Our camp, anchored by the trailer is decidedly open and inviting and we meet many new people by walkups alone. An RV is just one of many different piece's of equipment and tools use...

One of the members of our camp is handicapped so she applied for and received a handicap waiver from the org to bring an electric utility cart to the Playa for her to get around in. I have early arrival this year cause I'm part of one of the CORE projects. The woman with the waiver wont be arriving ...

Re: What happened to the 57K tickets sold in 2012?
Sunday mornings Black Rock Beacon had the following listed at the bottom of the front page.
"Black Rock city population as of 12:00pm Friday was 52,385, which declined to 48,785 on Saturday. This means that over 10,000 tickets were not used in 2012".
Comical.

Re: Covering tent mesh
Use a cloth and glue gun, or even Gorilla tape works great as long as you do it before your arrival on Playa cause once there dust immediately coats everything and nothin likes sticking to Playa dust.

Re: Damaged Envelope; Missing Tickets
Why do I remember getting my tickets scanned last year at gate. I also seem to remember getting my ee pass scanned as well.
How else would they be able to void ANY ticket ?

A few days later they discovered he had been transported to a hospital in Reno with severe burns. After the man collapsed...

If thats all the stuff you have, I can accomodate you. I'm in Orange County.
You would just have to bring your stuff here before event and pick it up here after.
Let me know....

"We should all be wary of the person who feels compelled to mention how many years he/she has attended--they are usually the least worthy."

Looking for info on the RV full of Lamplighters on 395
I was coming home from BRC on Monday late afternoon when about 20 miles before Kramer Junction I passed a pretty seasoned looking RV that was at the beginning of one of the bigger grades on that stretch of 395 sitting in the slow lane and not moving. I could tell from the bikes they were coming back...
