Friday & Saturday

Thunderdome! I was about halfway up and took this shot. Two of my friends were battling the previous night, but my camera wasn't working then so I have no proof. (There were more people climbing about that night, too, so it was a lot more Bartertown-esque.)

Nice henge.		These pyramids stretch off from the Rave-Henge. Each has a strobe and a small microphone, and are autonomous. When the mic hears a low tone (like a bass beat), the strobe fires. The upshot, then, is that you can, from a distance, watch the speed of sound shoot down this several hundred feet long line of pyramids. Pretty cool!

Check out the dust devil across the playa there. These things were quite large and once s4 and I had the opportunity to chase one down and ride through it. <br> When the larger things burned (like the Man and the Temple), the convection caused numerous fire-hot dust devils to appear and ripple out of the flames carrying hot ash, vapors and burning wood. Pretty cool!
