If you came here for info on our shipping service other than our travel itinerary, you're probably looking for one of the following: FAQ, Labels, Storage, Water, Truck Load and Unload. If you're ready to reserve space on the truck, go HERE.



NOTE: There are separate itineraries for Boston, New York, and Los Angeles


This is the drive-down/drive-back schedule for Seattle & Bellingham BGX campers to our BRC camp at 7:30 and Hummer, and covers most everything that will go from Wednesday, August 20th to Wednesday, September 3rd.


Like last year, we will be following Wally Route #4 and stopping in Summer Lake Hot Springs. Hopefully Joy will again be making fancy maps, and keeping one of them for herself.

Camels in the Clamorous Caravan

Sar would like to get an idea of how many vehicles we are taking down, and who is planning on riding in which so that we can make it as efficient and fun as possible to get everyone to the Playa and back.

The Seattle/Bellingham Caravan

  • Truck (capacity for 2,) these folks are willing to take turns driving:
  • Lee's Truck with Trailer (capacity 2)
  • Damien & Sar are renting a "Chevy Cobalt or similar" (capacity 4), and would love to split the $250/2 week rental with like-minded folks, if possible...
  • Dusky, Beth's car (if we want and need it) can fit 5 people okay if two of them are small or all of them have had sex with each other in the past. Last time I check Dusky gets about 30 miles to the gallon I think I bit better on the free way, but unlike Sar I haven't checked in awhile.
