Gear
From Bgx
This is a stub for a portal page collecting various gear-related resources. If any of these grew to the point where they needed their own pages, this page would contain links to them.

Packing lists
There are plenty of useful packing lists out there; hopefully we can collect the best ones here:
And Marty could add a list of the findings (if any) that came from his email asking for "underrated necessities"...
Gear needs
Missing a tent? Maybe someone knows where to find one! At very least, the rest of the camp might know what you need and be looking out for you.
Shared camp items
a.k.a. the opposite of Radical Self-Reliance
If you're bringing a large or plentiful shared resource, list it here, so that everyone else doesn't bring the same thing.
Is anyone on point for a re-bar group-buy?
- First Aid Kit (Joy)
- Walkie Talkies (Marty?)
- Tool Box (Marty?)
- Ladder (Jon/Kat? We have a 15 foot cheapass extension ladder - maybe no use if what we need is a free-standing stepladder)
- Mallets
- Hand Carts
NOTE: It looks like much of this section (things "that aren’t power, shade structures, food, or kitchen stuff") have been moved to the Camp Atmosphere page.
Lost and found
End up with a stockpile of expired PBR/Fresca, some ratchet straps, or bin full of stuff that doesn't actually belong to you? List it here, and maybe someone will claim it (or might need to "borrow" it for this year's burn.
Deals
El-Wire
Jenybe recommends [5 foot Plug and Play Units] from [Cool Neon]. Reusable, versatile, and perfect for decoration & lighting your body on the playa. She has the old "fish" drivers, but you can prolly rock any drivers that they have (call if you aren't sure which one to get).
- Great guys, and the cheapest prices around (as of 2 years ago)
- May offer a burner discount if ordered early enough (so order early)
- Actually have humans answering their phones who can answer questions.
