Help!

OK burners I need some guidance. Until recently I was not overly concerned about being able to find a chunk of land to sleep on on Thursday afternoon at Burning Man. Should I be? There are only 4 of us. 3 regular sized tents and ~6' shade thing off the front of mine. Tell what you think. Be honest if you think we're nuts.

If you're just talking about real estate, there are several hundred square miles of desert out there, and within the confines of the event there is enough free space for another city. If you're talking about room to pitch a tent with the people you're camping with, that's another question that they'd have to address based on how much real estate they were granted at placement (if they're a theme camp).

There is a ton of free space on the outer streets that is pretty much first-come first served squatter's land, and there is also a designated place for random people to pitch tents- Steve D. used it one year before he found us.

The levitators got more land than expected, also, and while I can't speak for them until we finish counting heads and placing domes, if you get in a bind come see us.

Awesome, I had no idea you were coming!

You should be fine. By Thursday afternoon the only land available will probably be on the streets farthest from the esplanade but there is always extra space out there.

Our corner of AEZ is located at 6:45 and F this year. Come say hi!
