This is a curiosity question.

Starts today Festival; will there be C170 Pilots and /or their airplanes attending?

I don't know what their purpose or mission statement.

Don't believe they are wanting to sell land or condos. Once inside the camp supposed to be non commercial.

But what about landing a C 170 outside the camp. Deseret Adventure.

Wait for the High Sierra fly-in in October. It's a burning man for pilots but without the drugs and crazy people. It's the best remote and non-commercial fly-in I have been to. Same terrain, dry desert lake bed, and remoteness but filled with planes of every sort and people of all ages who love them. You can bring the kids and they will have a ball. Bring EVERYTHING you need to camp, there are no stores anywhere close.

{PLUS ONE!}. Burning Man is a drug/drunken gathering of fools according to everyone I know who has been there.

+ 1 for the HSF, its great. Or just go and camp on your own, BlackRock, or the Alvord in Eastern Oregon. Both magical places and really nice on your own for the silence and the stars. A bicycle is fun as the salt flats are easy riding.
