At least "5" that need to build a yurt in Reno?
Possible Solutions:
Call The Salvagery in Reno - Burn Wall Street is leaving the
building for the playa & it's huge
One of the 5 should have a car for supply runs. If not, rent one
for the five of you.
Rent a truck to bring yurts to BRC & truck it back to Reno & get a
rideshare back.
For Exodus: Find space in friends trucks or trailers. I am camping
in Illumination Village and have space to take one or two yurts BACK to
NorCal (Lake County 2 hrs north of SF) AFTER the burn.
Peace, )(hoenix

Short explanation & request: The hexayurt I built in Asheville, NC
can't be transported to Burning Man. I'll need to build another in
Reno. (Or San Fransisco) Complicating factor: I won't have a
vehicle to lug material from the harware store to a build site.
Alternative request: Does anyone in Reno (Or San Fransisco) have a
hexayurt I can buy or rent for Burning Man?
More fun explanation & request:
Greetings & salutations from Asheville, NC. Home of delicious
beer, tree-covered mountains, and a large freak community.
I find myself in an embarrassing hexayurt emergency. Embarrassing
because I thought I had planned for every contingency, only to
find myself begging to strangers for help at the last minute.
Here is the situation: 2011 was my first burn. I _loved_ the
hexayurts, and resolved to bring one with me to the playa in 2012.
Within six weeks of retuning home I built my first Hexayurt with
this group's help. Here is a gratuitous link to pictures of my
structure, which, incidentally, won the 2011 "Most Creative
Campsite at LEAF" award. ( http://imgur.com/a/lBwCC )
I rented truck-space to transport this beautiful yurt
across-country; sadly I have just been informed this is no longer
possible. (The story about what happened to the truck is complex,
and I don't want to go into it. Suffice it to say that you should
never trust hippies with large machinery.)
I can't find an alternative way to bring the yurt out west this
late in the game. Besides, I'm flying out to San Fransisco to help
build infrastructure for Sacred Spaces Village in four days. I
simply have too much on my plate to search for another truck.
As best I can tell, there are two solutions:
1) Build another Yurt in Reno, then have it transported to the
playa from there. This, of course, opens a host of other problems:
Where will I find the materials? Where will I find a covered area
to build the structure? How will I transport materials to the
build-site?
2) Buy a hexayurt in Reno or San Fransisco. (Preferred option)
Any advice, help, direction will be greatly appreciated & add to
your positive karma.
