A voided ticket for various reasons would go back into STEP. There are plenty of reasons it could happen. Not saying it will but I’ll take any available options at this point.

Hopefully everyone remembered to register for the OMG STEP option at noon today. It is a different tier ticket with different pricing so you have to go through the OMG STEP registration process.

We left a rest stop north of Eugene at 6am on about 2.5 hours of sleep last year and made it to Gate Road at 5. I’m hoping to flip that this year and do the bulk of the driving on day one. It is about 30 miles different to use the Yakima route from what google maps shows. When I pulled it up yesterd...

Anyone from Seattle do the drive east to avoid Portland? Last year we had a late start so the traffic heading south wasn’t so bad but we will be leaving Seattle area at 3pm on Thursday and figure hitting Portland around 6 is bad. How are the roads heads south out of Yakima? I’m hoping. To get to Kla...

I’m a bit jealous but I’d have no problem with someone cruising by me slowly on a bike in exodus. If you can make it to cedarville the north route is awesome. It would be a blast on a bike.

Oooh! I’m interested. But you have to promise me the grey and black water tanks will be totally full, all fresh water gone, and the whole thing trashed with dust and garbage. I want to make sure “my half” of the week is spent wallowing in your filth, before I get to detail clean the damn thing and ...

I actually got a notifications Friday from the step program, I got my tickets, I thought this was a waste of time, my bad

FOMO or main sale? What was your confirmation time (request to server or email)

I just paid $494.87 for a will call ticket via BxB+ today for my wife. A shipped ticket would probably be right about that $508 number.

Thanks for the continued offer of this. We had hoped to make it down last year but had a delay in our departure so didn't make it that far. This year that delay shouldn't exist so we'll be shooting to make our pit stop at EaglesNest.

Pedro, I've worn braid extensions for years. For itchy scalp relief: tee tree oil in a spritzer bottle is magical.

Thanks, I was thinking something like this would work. I assume she should spray it on the "exposed" areas of the scalp.

I never have to worry about hair issues on the playa as I have none. That being said I have a question for my wife. First year she ended up with a rats nest (well not that bad, but yeah it was a wreck). Last year she had cornrows braided with extensions and it was so much better. The only thing she ...

It would be the 2nd one. Sorry for the confusing question... I'm asking for someone else. Yes, adding people to the camp should be rather easy. I didn't think someone from the BORG would come, count heads and issue a citation because we're short a few people based on our application - but wanted to...

Still no luck on my end... 12:03 email (12:02 confirmation from Lyte). Requested 2 tickets.

Got an email at 12:04 after registering for STEP and got two $425 tickets and vehicle pass on Friday 5/31.

What email did the STEP email come from? I got my email at 12:03 and haven't heard anything.

In the past I've bought the $990 ticket and then come across a main sale ticket. At that point I actually sell the $990 presale ticket for $750, effectively splitting the cost difference between the two tickets. This is always done with friends who didn't get a ticket through the main sale channel. ...

Clean post-playa exterior glass trick: Wipe all glass and mirrors with a DRY microfiber towel, before using any water or cleaning solution, no baby wipes, no moisture, just a dry microfiber towel. I was amazed, better than washing for initial post playa drive home... no streaks. Dry wiping everythi...

That impact driver was plenty of power for the 16" 1/2" lag...

Čapek wrote one of my favorite short works about a Swedish vacuum cleaner.

This was the best year I've had for RV prep/cleanup. 90-120 minutes of prep, mostly on playa except for the moving blankets I laid down all over before we left to protect the seating/sleeping areas plus the floor. Spent 60-90 minutes taping on playa with 3M blue painters tape and covering most windo...

Thanks. I’ll double check with Gate.

We are pushing to be there as early as possible and my camp is aware of timing and prepared if we don't get there early on Saturday. As stated, I'm not going to risk myself, my passenger or my transportation because I need to arrive a few hours earlier. The travel aspect of this is safety first, not...

So we are coming down early with WAP's with plans for a Saturday arrival. My intent is to arrive by 2-3pm on Saturday depending on the drive. Is there a cutoff time that we have to be in before they close the access for them? I just want to make sure we don't miss that and end up at Gate only to be ...

Yeah that will probably drive 24" 1/2 lags with no problem. I'll stick with my $199 set (with drill).

The one I got is an M18 Brushless, just not the Fuel class. 1500lb/ft of torque vs 1800lb/ft for half the cost. Otherwise they are basically the same. Home Depot has mine on sale for $199 vs $400 for the Fuel version (both come with a drill as well). You get 2 5amp batteries with the Fuel version ve...

Yea, unless you're driving huge number you should be fine with 3 batteries. I think I lasted a full 4A battery on my Dewalt XR impact driver last year driving ~20 or so 3/8 x 14 in and also out at the end without having to change. Bring the charger _just_ in case, cause your neighbor might need to ...

Thanks. I assumed I’d be fine with this but wanted to confirm. I’ll make sure to have a few spares of the adapters as well as 3 total batteries so I don’t have to worry about running out of juice.

Since it doesn't seem to be the single source for good impact drivers I figured I'd ask the question. I'm looking at the Milwaukee M18 Impact Driver that is included in this set and wondering if it would work for 16" 1/2 lags? I don't want to get down there and not be able to setup my shade because ...

Thanks I'll take a peak at that thread.
