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.

We are not with a theme camp so there is nothing allocated. Really we're just 4 people that need to pitch a tent. Where is the designated space where Steve camped. Is it usually full by Thursday?

Obviously we want to be as central as possible but, we all have bikes and will manage. I just want to be prepared with a viable plan and not assume things. I'm swinging between 'It will all work out, it always does' and full out pnic.

Walk-In Camping

A marked area immediately behind the south side of Black Rock City will be reserved for Walk-In Camping. You will need to leave your vehicle, and carry your belongings to your chosen spot. No vehicles or RVs will be allowed in the Walk-In Camping area. The sheer difficulty of this exercise will keep the area sparsely populated, and your efforts will be rewarded with solitude not available in other parts of the city.

Why? Looking at the map, it seems pretty convenient.

I would really like to have the car there. And not have to lug a full air mattress much of a distance. But will take aother look the prospect. Thanks!
