Camps are set on a muddy desert plain on September 2, 2023, after heavy rains turned the annual Burning Man festival site in Nevada’s Black Rock desert into a mud pit. The event started Sunday in the Black Rock Desert, about 100 miles north of Reno, Nev. Burning Man organizers say about 80,000 people show up to their event each year. Climate activists protested at Burning Man. Giralte encourages Burning Man attendees to keep an eye on the forecast and have a plan to respond to hazardous conditions, such as sheltering in the car.
