I think we need to be patient for a couple more months... I dont remember exactly but I think the 2010 street names came out sometime in late June or early July (around the same time the city map came out).

YAY!!!!

[Playa+Tom]

Give all the streets the same name, "I'm at the corner of A Street and A Street." This will make navigating one's way through Black Rock City a true right of passage.

Anniversary and Divorce, but no Wedding. Maybe Marriage if they have to add another street.

Somehow the new eplaya is making the post hard to find.
The new street names are out!
Just a bump on the news.

A suggestion that H should be HANDJOB and L should be LAID!

and what about "B"?

[AntiM]

"Coming Out". I see earlier sign theft than before, and/or sign modification.

Perhaps we should each make signs with the names the way we like them and swap them out early. Like Sunday night before the gates open.

Where does the Temple usually get built (the one they burn on Sunday night)?

Where does the Temple usually get built (the one they burn on Sunday night)?

Depends on what you mean (not being snarky for once!):

If you want to know where the off-playa work is done: it depends on who is building the Temple. The Temple for this year is based out of Reno, so that's where the prep work is being done. When it was David Best it was done (I believe) in the SF Bay Area somewhere. If it was being built by a crew from Toronto, they'd probably do the prep work there.

On playa it's built right where they burn it. Kinda big to move around.

Oh- there's only one "Temple". There may be other buildings that look like temples, or other buildings or camps that have "spiritual" connections (like Sacred Village), but only one building is recognized as the Temple, no matter what it looks like, so no descriptive is needed after it in a Burner context.

[I11I1II1]

My impression is that it would be built between 10 and 2 o'clock straight behind the Man on the opposite side of Center Camp.... is this correct?

[theCryptofishist]

Right.

Sorry, forgot you were a first timer. Look at the map, the Man is the big circle dead center, the little circle "above" him in the middle of nowhere is the Temple. If there was a road there it would be Esplanade & 12, but Esplanade ends at 2 & 10.

There is a road that goes to the man from 3, 6 & 9, the 6:00 road keeps extending to the Temple, then past it to another major art piece (not sure what piece it is this year)

[I11I1II1]

Thanks Eric! I was thinking that would be a good place for me to take my solar powered amp and play some of Pat's tunes (Metheny) such as "First Circle", September 15th, This is not America...

The Temple is that "wavy" thing up from the Man. Center Camp is the big circus-tent looking thing down from the Man. Just so you're forewarned- this map does not include most of the "Deep Playa", which is the area past the Temple out to the Trash Fence.

Are you allowed to camp on the deep playa (or just in the circular area not reserved for theme camps)?

Camping is only allowed in the city or in "walk in camping", which behind the farthest street on the 3 side. You can see the scattered tents in the gigapan image.

Although.. I wish I could find a favorite picture of mine of a couple with a bed on wheels that they wheeled out onto open playa for sunrise..

So, while no official camping.. no one ever said that you couldn't make yourself comfy out there..

In other words the deep playa is reserved for art?

[yurtgirl]

What about M for menopause? Id be camped all the way out there this year. That's MY rite of passage.
