Leaving the Burn Early

Post by Zomb » Wed Aug 26, 2009 1:46 pm

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I have to leave Reno on a 1:20pm flight. What time should I leave Black Rock to make sure I don't miss my flight?

If you're leaving before the man burns, it should take about 3 hours to get to the airport.

If you're leaving after the man burns, it should take about 6-8 hours to get to the airport.

On Thursday it is unlikely that you will encounter much traffic heading back towards Reno.

Watch out for eager burners going opposite direction. They will speed and pass each other on a 2 lane road.
Nothing you can do about it, that's the way it is :roll:
