Another successful year! On October 10, 2003 Burning Man passed the Bureau of Land Management's site inspection of the Black Rock Desert where Black Rock City stood in 2003. Once again, Black Rock City proves its mettle as the city that disappears without a trace. Our thanks to everyone who packed it in, packed it out and left without a trace ... and our sincerest congratulations and gratitude to the DPW cleanup crew for striking the set and returning the desert to its pristine natural state!
