What to Carry in your Night Bag at Burning Man

You'll want to keep your night pack nice and light so you don't feel like you're on some kind of hike when you should be out there having fun and adventures! Here's are the essentials you might want to consider for your pack, along with some tips for keeping your pack out of harms way (lights!)

My goal is to get to the playa in 2023!! In all my researching and countless hours of reading and watching. You've been my favorite to watch!!

It's 5 years later. I'll be leaving tomorrow for my 1st burn, and your videos are great ! Thank you !

[@caseyphelps2712]

Thanks for all your videos! Been binging before my first burn! Really helpful and I feel better prepared for sure. Would be interesting to hear more about how to prepare if you are traveling from overseas. Luckily I have a camp so my friends are bringing all the big stuff, but still it's a LOT . Planning on buying a bunch of stuff in the States once I get there. Are you still going these days? Noticed your posts are all a bit older.

Exposing yourself to noise that loud can do permanent damage to your hearing, so don't forget those ear plugs.

hello! i was wondering about the "single ply tissue?" i have heard you cannot put anything in the "port-a-loo" that doesn't come out of your body.

[@projectpterodactyl81]

Single ply tissue is allowed. I just double checked because I suddenly worried that I'd been doing it wrong all this time and it wasn't allowed! Phew!
The BM website even says the line about not putting anything in the port-a-loos if it didn't come out of your body right after a line saying single ply toilet paper can go down there :)

[@draywolf1783]

Project Pterodactyl Thanks for checking! my wife and I are getting a lot of great information from your videos. Thanks for "gifting" them!

[@projectpterodactyl81]

Thanks so much I'm so glad they're helping :) It's really a pleasure to make them I'm just really happy that they are useful and that people enjoy them. Hopefully it'll mean that first timers can come feeling better prepared! Are you guys coming along this year?

[@draywolf1783]

Project Pterodactyl yes! we are first timers but we are meeting up with my brother. i think this is his 6th burn. also, he has a theme camp, Nothing Butt Art @ I - 4:45. We'd love to meet you if you can make it there! Your videos are definitely helping us out. They are straight to the point and very informative with things one REALLY needs to know. i even am planning on trying your recipes. are you planning on the body/face paint? hopefully the outfits we are making will allow us to fit in.

[@projectpterodactyl81]

I saw that theme camp listed somewhere it's such a cool concept! Can't wait to see peoples butt art haha. I'm probably going to drag out some body paints, I usually like to have a relaxed day painting people at some point and my campmates would be disappointed if I didn't bring some stuff along to paint them up with!
I'll definitely try and drop by the camp and get involved in a totally different type of painting than I'm used to :) hope to bump into you and can't wait to see those outfits you're working on!
Good luck with the recipes, they're a few of my faves for out there.

[@doortoodoor1289]

oh yea , dont forget marshmellows!

[@FountainBeee]

do you think you will have to carry your ID if you don't drink alcohol.

[@projectpterodactyl81]

I don't think so. I don't know what the law in america is about carrying ID with you at all times, but it's a good idea to bring some along just in case you do need it.

[@FountainBeee]

Thank you

[@ioodyssey3740]

yes. If something happens to you you should be easily identifiable including your camp, its location, and what friends/family you are with.

How about condoms
