Hey K , welcome. I am in Denver. You should try and go to Apogaea. it is the regional burn here in Colorado. apogaea.com. It is fantastic, and a good way to get into the colorado burners scene. Its june 10-13 and is about an hour and 45 min up in the mountains from colorado springs. so from boulder about 3hrs 30 min. I'm not sure when tickets go on sale. You shoulc definately check it out. Hope you have a great burn!

Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Woot Woot Colorado!!!
I've never been to Apogaea, but probably gonna make it this year!
Other cool events, more like parties, happen at Cervantes all the time. Check the Cervantes calendar often, the 13th and 17th will both be pretty sweet. Let me know if you're gonna go!

Welcome. Many Utah burners go to the CO burn, but this year they're on the same weekend. I hear good things about Apogaea, but have only been to our burn here myself.

check out the Colorado Burning Man list serve on Yahoo groups for up-to-date info about what's going on. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/colorado-bm/

Last year I had some spare time on my hands and counted up all the theme camps at BM. Colorado was number four in the nation in terms of placed theme camps. Not a big deal, but it is a sign of a really active community.

I hope to see you at Apogaea in June!

Apogaea is nice because it is so easy. Not much to worry about logistically beyond a weekend camping trip.

If you are looking for a clusterfuck though, it might not be the place, from my experience. It's been a real easy time the two times that I've gone.
